Overview

Eighty years ago, soldiers crossed this same stretch of Normandy coastline under fire. Today, you arrive in comfort — picked up directly at Le Havre cruise terminal, returned before your ship sails.

This is a fully private tour. No shared bus, no strangers, no fixed pace. Just you, your group, and a driver who knows every road, every bunker, and exactly how long to linger.

You'll stand at the edge of Pointe du Hoc — where U.S. Rangers scaled 30-meter cliffs under machine gun fire. You'll walk Omaha Beach, wide and quiet now, and feel the weight of what happened here on June 6, 1944. You'll pause at the Normandy American Cemetery, where 9,387 white crosses look out over the sea.

Your return to ship is guaranteed. Your driver tracks your schedule so you never watch the clock.

Want to go deeper? Upgrade to add a licensed historian guide who brings the battles to life with maps, stories, and details you won't find on any information board.

Pointe du Hoc

On the morning of June 6, 1944, U.S. Army Rangers were given what many considered a suicide mission: scale a 30-meter cliff face, under enemy fire, and destroy a German gun battery threatening both Omaha and Utah Beach.They made it.Today, Pointe du Hoc remains almost exactly as the Rangers left it. Shell craters scar the earth. Concrete bunkers sit split open by Allied bombardment. Gun emplacements still point toward the Channel. It is one of the most preserved D-Day sites in Normandy — and one of the most visceral.

Omaha Beach

Omaha was the bloodiest of the five D-Day landing beaches. American forces from the 1st and 29th Infantry Divisions faced heavily fortified German positions on the bluffs above — and paid an enormous price.Today the beach is wide, quiet, and edged by dunes. Standing here, looking out to sea, it is almost impossible to reconcile the stillness with what took place. That contrast — between the peace of the place now and the violence of that morning — is what makes Omaha unlike anywhere else.Your driver will give you time to walk, reflect, and take in the scale of it.

Cimetiere Americain de Colleville-sur-Mer

Perched on the bluffs above Omaha Beach, the Normandy American Cemetery holds 9,387 graves — soldiers, sailors, and airmen who gave their lives in the liberation of Western Europe.The rows of white marble crosses and Stars of David stretch across 70 acres of manicured lawn, facing west toward America. The site includes a memorial chapel, a Wall of the Missing bearing 1,557 names, and an interactive museum telling the story of the Normandy Campaign.Few places in the world carry this kind of weight.
