A private, expert-led drive along Omaha and Gold beaches with a specialist historian who tailors the day to your family's story, not a script. This is the one thing that defines Normandy.
What to expect
You're picked up by a specialist guide, often ex-military or a Normandy historian by training, who drives you in a private vehicle between the American cemetery at Colleville, Pointe du Hoc's craters, and the sands at Omaha at low tide. They weave first-person accounts and unpublished details into the visit, and pace is entirely yours — an hour at one bunker if you want it. It ends wherever feels right, not on a bus schedule.
Good to know
Book several weeks ahead in summer; pickup can be arranged directly at Ouistreham port. Full day runs 8-9 hours — confirm return timing against your all-aboard time, as Caen port sits ~15km from Ouistreham quay.
