Normandy D-Day Beaches & American Cemetery Private Tour

Walk the hallowed sands of Omaha Beach, stand in silence at the Normandy American Cemetery, and descend into preserved WWII bunkers with a specialist historian guide — all from Le Havre in a private vehicle.

What to expect

Departing Le Havre, your private vehicle heads west along the Normandy coast to the D-Day landing beaches. At Pointe du Hoc, your historian narrates the Ranger assault with the original craters and bunkers as backdrop. Omaha Beach delivers a profound, unhurried moment at the waterline before you ascend to the immaculate rows of the Normandy American Cemetery — 9,388 white marble crosses overlooking the sea. The return journey passes through the charming harbour town of Bayeux, optional stop included.
