On this full day tour from Cherbourg, you'll walk on the footsteps of the 156 000 GI's who liberated France and Europe. With me, you'll gain the unique perspective of the grandson a resistance fighters, who told me "almost " everything they went through during these awful 4 years. Things I didn't find in history books, even the best ones. In Arromanches, you'll immerse yourself in the terrible first days of combat. In Longues sur Mer, you'll grasp what was really the Atlantic Wall. In Ste Mère Eglise, I'll explain you in details how the Americans were able to capture the Cherbourg Peninsula so quickly and its importance for the battle of Normandy and Europe. On Omaha beach, you'll walk on holy grounds as I'll explain you in details the initial assault. And, of course, at the Normandy American Cemetery, I'll share with you the stories of many of the 9388 young boys fallen here for Liberty. At the end of the day I usually hear : "too bad we did not book more than one day to visit Normandy with Igor. "
