Visit of Sainte-Mère-Eglise.

Omaha and Utah Beaches.

These two names sound like tragic memories. Heart of the American sector, discovering Omaha and Utah will take you back to this glorious and scary 6^th of June 1944. Try to imagine the thunderous bombings on the beach contrasting today with the peaceful and bucolic atmosphere. “Bloody Omaha”, called after the numerous corpses left on the beach, is a great example of human bravery whereas Utah offers a picturesque view of the famous parachutist hung at the bell tower of Sainte-Mère-Eglise..

Pointe-du-Hoc.*

30 m high cliffs overlooking the sea, Pointe-du-Hoc is a dramatic historic site. Imagine hundreds of craters showing the massive bombings prior the landing. US Rangers had to climb the cliff to neutralize German canons…and found there a huge surprise. Unforgettable moment.

*Please note that Pointe du Hoc is currently undergoing renovation works. As a result, visitor capacity on site is significantly limited, particularly with regard to parking, and access may be restricted or, in some cases, temporarily unavailable.

Should access to Pointe du Hoc not be possible on the day of the tour, the guide will adapt the itinerary accordingly and replace the visit with an alternative site of equivalent historical significance. Priority will be given to the Longues-sur-Mer German Artillery Battery; if necessary, the visit may instead be replaced by the German Military Cemetery of La Cambe.

The final decision will be made by the guide on the day of the tour, based on on-site conditions, visitor numbers, and the overall profile of the group, in order to ensure the best possible experience.

Lunch at your leisure.

US Cemetery.

A piece of America in Normandy. After the end of the war, in 1956, France gave a plot of land dominating Omaha Beach. The cemetery consists into infinite lines of marble and several monuments rending homage to the US Nation. Over 9000 US soldiers are resting for eternity here. Don’t miss the chapel, the visitor’s center and above all the Garden of the Missings, with the names of 1557 soldiers that were never found.
