    What you will do

    • Paris

      Your D-Day journey begins in Paris. Travel in a comfortable minivan through the French countryside toward Normandy. Along the way, your expert guide sets the scene for June 6, 1944, bringing Operation Overlord to life through compelling stories, historical insights, and original archival audio.

      Pass by, no stop

    • Discover one of the greatest engineering achievements of World War II: the artificial Mulberry Harbor built to supply the Allied forces after D-Day. Standing on the shores of Arromanches, see the remains of this extraordinary structure and understand how it helped sustain the liberation of Normandy and the advance across Europe.

      45 min

    • Walk the sands of Omaha Beach, where American troops faced the bloodiest fighting of D-Day.

      Standing where the first waves came ashore, listen to the voices of veterans who survived that morning, and discover how a landing that came close to failure was turned around by the courage and initiative of small groups of men.

      45 min

    • Overlooking Omaha Beach, the Normandy American Cemetery is one of the most moving memorials of World War II. Walk among nearly 9,389 white headstones, visit the memorial and the Walls of the Missing, where 1,557 names are engraved, and take a quiet moment of remembrance.

      45 min

    • Take some free time to enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, explore the picturesque harbor, or simply soak up the coastal atmosphere before continuing your D-Day journey. Lunch is not included.

      1 h

    • Stand atop the cliffs where Lt. Col. James Rudder’s Rangers climbed under fire on D-Day, only to find the guns had been moved inland, where they tracked them down and destroyed them. Walk among the bunkers and bomb craters that still scar this dramatic headland.

      45 min

    • Explore an outstanding collection of World War II vehicles, weapons and personal objects, from Sherman tanks to German artillery. Life-size scenes retrace the Battle of Normandy, from the landings to the liberation, through the eyes of both soldiers and civilians.

      45 min

    • Hidden Gem: Depending on the day's itinerary, your guide will take you to a lesser-known historical site, a dramatic coastal viewpoint, or a charming Norman village. A special discovery that adds a personal touch to your D-Day experience.

      30 min

    • Relax on the journey back to Paris after a memorable day exploring the Normandy D-Day sites. Return to the original meeting point at approximately 8 PM, with lasting memories of the places, stories, and people who shaped history.
