From Paris: Normandy Landing Beaches D-Day Tour by Minibus｜France

Explore some of the most significant sites in Normandy, where the Allied landings changed the course of the Second World War, on a full day trip from Paris.

Travel by air conditioned coach through the Normandy countryside and begin your visit at the German battery of Longues sur Mer, part of the Atlantic Wall, where several original guns remain in place and offer a powerful insight into the German defenses.

Continue to the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville sur Mer for a moving visit to this memorial site where 9,386 soldiers are laid to rest. Take time to visit the Visitor Center, opened in 2007, to deepen your understanding of the D Day landings and the Battle of Normandy.

Proceed to Omaha Beach, one of the most intense landing sites of June 6 1944. Spend time on the beach reflecting on the events that took place here before enjoying an included lunch featuring regional Normandy specialties.

In the early afternoon, discover the remains of the artificial harbor at Arromanches sur Mer, built by the Allies in less than 15 days to support the landings. Parts of the Mulberry Harbour are still visible offshore.

Before returning to Paris, depending on the day’s schedule, you may continue along the coast past Gold Beach and make a stop near Juno Beach and its cemetery, one of the key landing sites for Canadian forces during D Day.

At the end of the day, return to Paris after an immersive journey through one of the most important chapters of modern history.
