D-Day Landing Beaches - US Sector - Shore Excursion

On this tour, I'll take you to the main sites where American soldiers landed on D-Day. We'll explore the beaches and other key locations (you’ll be able to walk on the sand if the tide allows!), and I'll share the powerful stories of what unfolded in the early hours of June 6th. We’ll also visit the remaining bunkers and gun positions, and I’ll highlight specific actions that took place there. In addition to this, we'll have the chance to honour the men and women who gave their lives for our freedom by visiting the American Cemetery. This is a peaceful yet very moving place overlooking Omaha Beach — the site of the heaviest Allied losses on D-Day. My focus is on showing you the actual battle sites and cemetery rather than spending a lot of time in museums. But if you'd like to see a museum, we can absolutely work that in — it'll just mean a little less time at the other locations, but let me know, and the tour can be customized to your preferences.

With a departure from Le Havre - Cruise Terminal, we'll be able to see : · Our first stop will be in Utah Beach (2 hours of driving), where American forces launched a major assault · Drive to Sainte Mère Eglise, where we'd visit a stained glass church where a famous American paratrooper was caught on the steeple · A proposed lunch would follow before continuing to Omaha Beach, where you'll be able to walk on the beach itself · Then, we'll reach the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, which holds 9,000 graves · Drive back to your drop off location at the Cruise Terminal in Le Havre
