Anyone with an interest in World War II history understands the significance of the Battle of Normandy. This massive attack by allied forces eventually brought 3 million allied troops into Western Europe, 160,000 on D-Day alone. Take a private Cherbourg tour with a local history expert and see firsthand where the Americans landed on June 6, 1944.

Your local guide has made it his mission to ensure no one forgets the sacrifice made by those who fought in the Battle of Normandy. With him you can visit Utah, Omaha and Juno beaches and understand the military strategies behind the invasions, and what it would have been like for the airborne soldiers who dropped from the sky and into occupied territory. See the US Military Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, and the town of Sainte Mère Eglise, the first place liberated by American forces.

Your guide will ensure you leave your private Cherbourg tour in Normandy with a real sense of the significance of events that transpired here 70+ years ago.
