A Journey to Normandy & The D-Day Beaches

On June 6, 1944, the beaches of Normandy became the stage for one of history’s most critical battles. At Utah Beach, Allied forces quickly overcame German defenses, while Omaha Beach saw fierce resistance, leading to heavy casualties but ultimately securing victory. This tour honors the courage and sacrifices of those who fought to secure peace and freedom.

Your experience begins in the heart of Paris, where you’ll hop aboard our comfortable air-conditioned coach with your expert tour guide. During the journey, your dedicated guide
will share captivating stories of World War II, from the meticulous planning of D-Day to the unforeseen challenges faced by the Allied forces. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or simply curious, this immersive narrative sets the tone for the day ahead.

Visit Utah Beach & The Utah Beach Landing Museum

The first stop on our itinerary is Utah Beach and the Utah Beach Museum, uniquely situated in a German bunker on the very shore of the D-Day landings. The museum’s exhibits are unrivaled, featuring rare artifacts, soldiers’ personal letters, and even an original B-26 bomber, one of only six in the world and the only one in France. The serene beauty of Utah Beach provides a striking contrast to its historical significance.

Taste Local Cuisine & Explore Pointe du Hoc

You’ll then take some time out to relax and experience the culture and traditions of the Normandy region. Then, we’ll go to a quiet port for a two-course lunch with cider in a local restaurant, backdropped incredibly by Pointe du Hoc and the English Channel.

The trip continues to the Pointe du Hoc Battlefield, a cliffside location where Allied forces faced formidable challenges. The panoramic views of the English Channel are juxtaposed with the preserved bomb craters and remnants of the battle, offering a vivid reminder of the courage required to scale these cliffs under relentless fire.

Remembering D-Day at The Normandy American Cemetery

One of the tour's final emotional moments will take us to the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer. Here, nearly 10,000 white crosses stand as a powerful tribute to the soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice. You’ll have time to explore the memorial, reflect at the wall of the missing, and take in views of Omaha Beach from above, connecting deeply with the stories of those who shaped history. After an unforgettable day of exploring Normandy’s history and beauty, enjoy a relaxing and scenic return to Paris with us.

Our D-Day Normandy tour from Paris will re-create memories of tremendous courage and sacrifice throughout the entire day. At night’s end, you will have a new appreciation of the history and beauty of Normandy – and memories that you won’t forget.

Exploring Omaha Beach (Beginning March 1, 2025)

As of March 2025, your tour includes a visit to Omaha Beach, one of the most significant and hard-fought locations of D-Day. Walking the sands where soldiers displayed immense bravery offers a deeply moving experience and unforgettable insight into the events of June 6, 1944. This new addition to our experience will replace the guided visit to the Norman Cider Farm.
