Description
Meet your guide at Place de Québec and then begin your D-Day exploration adventure, retracing history as you uncover the day of June 6, 1944.
Due to on-going renovation works, Pointe du Hoc may not be accessible during part of 2026 and 2027. In the event of site closure, the visit will be replaced with another major D-Day location.
Visit (when accessible) the legendary Pointe du Hoc, where U.S. Army Rangers scaled towering cliffs under enemy fire on June 6, 1944. Your guide will recount the daring mission and its lasting impact. If the site remains closed for renovations, your visit will include the Longues-sur-Mer Battery, one of the best-preserved German coastal defenses, with panoramic views across the invasion beaches.
Continue your journey to Omaha Beach, one of the most iconic D-Day landing zones. Walk along the sands where American soldiers bravely fought to secure a foothold in Nazi-occupied France, while your guide shares vivid stories of the intense battle that unfolded here.
Conclude your half-day tour at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking Omaha Beach. Spanning 170 acres, this peaceful memorial honors more than 9,000 U.S. servicemen who gave their lives for freedom. Stroll through the meticulously kept grounds, visit the memorial chapel, and reflect on the personal stories that define this solemn site.
