From Paris: WWII D-Day Normandy USA Landing Beaches Semi-Private Guided Full-Day Tour

This comprehensive D-Day tour takes you from Paris to the historic Normandy beaches where Allied forces launched their decisive assault on Nazi-occupied Europe on 6 June 1944. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned minibus with an expert English-speaking guide who brings these pivotal moments to life through personal stories and historical context.

Your small group tour visits four key sites: Pointe du Hoc where US Rangers scaled sheer cliffs under fire, Omaha Beach where nearly 2,500 men made the ultimate sacrifice, the solemn Colleville sur Mer American Cemetery with almost 9,000 white crosses, and Juno Beach where Canadian forces played their crucial role. Each location offers preserved bunkers, craters, and monuments that tell the story of this turning point in world history.
