Overview of your Caen tour:

Did you always want to understand why D-Day was so important in History and why it still is today for many people? On this tour we'll talk about what was going on at the time (you'll hear also about Germany as I grew up there), how France got occupied by the Nazis and why Normandy was finally chosen for the landing of Allied forces. You will get to see my maps and photos which will help you to visualize it as well. We will be walking on the sites where battles were fought and through the personal stories of soldiers (but also local French people living there at the time), you will not only get to hear about the overall history but also get to understand the individual stories. I've been a guide here for over 10 years now and had the chance to meet veterans, their families and local French people and heard their stories, plus all the research I did, I try do my best to give you a memorable tour.

Your Caen tour itinerary

This Tour will start at your hotel in Bayeux or another place by arrangement. - Pointe du Hoc (German strongpoint which was one of the most important objectives to be taken that day) - Omaha beach (we try to stop at a site where you still can find emplacements and if the tide allows, you can walk on the beach as well) - Normandy American cemetery. This tour will end at the agreed place in Bayeux. Additional information: I can customize my tours according to the traveler's preferences or if you will wish to visit a museum, please feel free to contact me.

Transportation Details
Type: Private Transportation / Category: Sedan

I'll drive my 7-seater VW Sharan, which is air-conditioned and from 2016. It has a nice large sun-roof and the seats are very comfortable. I can take up to 4 adults plus two people in the rear. On the sites, we'll walk often on sand and sometimes uneven ground so make sure you wear good walking shoes.
