Normandy D-Day Landing Beaches Day Trip from Paris
Take a walk through one of the most important episodes in modern history. With your driver-guide and a small group (maximum 8), you will travel to the Normandy beaches in an air-conditioned vehicle. Once you arrive ithere, you will stop at the "Pointe du Hoc," cliffs 90 feet high between Omaha and Utah beaches where 225 Rangers landed on the morning of June 6, 1944. It was one of the strong points of the German fortifications and your guide will give you some time to soak in the atmosphere of this iconic location. This tour also provides you with an admission ticket to the Overlord Museum.
You will also visit the Colleville sur Mer American Cemetery which overlooks Omaha Beach. The 170 acre site contains 9,000 perfectly aligned white crosses and a memorial chapel which adds a finishing touch to this moving scene, allowing visitors to reflect on the price of war. It is also an opportunity for you to go in search of your own history as many of us have relatives or friends who fought and fell in this conflict. Other World War II locations that you will see are Arromanches with its vestiges of the artificial harbor (Mulberry Bridge), Longues-sur-Mer and the German artillery battery, which gave the allies a pounding on the morning of D-Day. It is actually the only coastal battery to have kept its guns, giving an impressive picture of what an atlantic wall gun emplacement was really like. At the end of your day you will be given free time to explore the Caen Peace Memorial, a place for contemplating war in general and why it is important not to forget the legacy of the Second World War.
