Product Info

Discover Omaha Beach and D-Day through a tour specially designed for those who want to understand the history of the Landing without being specialists.
Meet your live guide at WN62, one of the German defense points overlooking Omaha Beach. Before you start learning dates, unit names, and military terms, start by observing the landscape. With illustrated maps created especially for the tour, archival photographs, and a 3D model of a landing craft, you can easily visualize the situation of the American soldiers on the morning of June 6, 1944.
Then descend to Omaha Beach and the monument to the US 1st Infantry Division, the "Big Red One". Compare the current landscape to images from the time, observe the terrain, and discover why this beach became one of the most difficult sectors of the D-Day landings. Throughout the tour, your live guide favors discussion and questions rather than a long technical speech: observe, ask your questions, and gradually build your understanding of the events.
The tour continues on foot to the American Cemetery in Normandy. After understanding how the landing unfolded on the ground, discover its human dimension through the men who took part in it and take the time to understand what this place of remembrance represents today.
This small group tour, limited to 10 people, is designed to make the story clear, visual, and accessible. No prior knowledge of D-Day is required: come with your questions and leave with a clearer understanding of what happened at Omaha Beach.
