Things to know
About the Activity
We are pleased to propose the visit of two of Normandy's highlights in one day for travelers who are looking for a hassle-free Normandy excursion from Paris, including a DDay tour focused on Omaha Beach and a tour of Mont Saint Michel. We will then take you back to Paris. It's not always easy to organize this on your own, with the time constraints of the trains and all the logistics, so we are pleased to allow visitors with limited time and no desire to plan it all to have that option, which we are delighted to offer. Understand that these are two fairly long days, but well worth it. We can also assist you in finding the right hotels if you need.2 days

Arromanches-les-Bains
Arromanches-les-Bains, FranceFollowing a 3-hour drive from Paris, we arrive at the first stop of our tour of the dday tour.
The Mulberry B harbour at Gold Beach was used for 10 months after D-Day, and over 2.5 million men, 500,000 vehicles, and 4 million tons of supplies were landed before it was fully decommissioned. The still only partially-completed Mulberry A harbour at Omaha Beach was damaged on 19 June by a violent storm that arrived from the north-east before the pontoons were securely anchored. After three days the storm finally abated and damage was found to be so severe that the harbour had to be abandoned and the Americans had to resort to landing men and material over the open beaches4 hours • Admission Ticket FreeView Location2
Omaha Beach
Avenue de la Liberation, Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer, FranceTwo thirds of the seaborne troops from the United States on D-Day were launched against a four-mile long beach overlooked by steep bluffs and blocked off at either end by limestone cliffs, the place they call ‘Bloody Omaha.’
The 29th Infantry Division and the 1st Infantry Division would be badly mauled in their assault; mined obstacles on the beach and mines in the bluffs, a shingle bank or sea wall to overcome, barbed wire, and concrete fortifications beyond. At its western end, the first wave was all but wiped out, and succeeding waves piled up on the sea wall, paralysed for a time. 1 hour • Admission Ticket FreeView Location3
Cimetiere Americain de Colleville-sur-Mer
Colleville-sur-Mer, France, 14710Located on the coast, between Arromanches and Grandcamp Maisy, this vast 70 hectare site overlooks Omaha beach. It reunites the graves of 9,387 soldiers fallen in combat. The chapel, Memorial and the Walls of the Missing and garden complete the site. The Visitor Center pays homage to the courage and the skill that were required to conduct Operation Overlord and to ensure Europe's liberation, together with the utlimate sacrifice made by those who are laid to rest within this site. 1 hour • Admission Ticket FreeView Location4
Pointe du Hoc
Cricqueville-en-Bessin, France, 14450Captured on the morning of the 6th of June 1944 by Colonel Rudder's Rangers, the site was also one of key features of the German defensive fortifications. The site reminds us of what an artillery battery was like, with its firing command post, casemates and shelters.1 hour • Admission Ticket FreeView LocationAccommodation : Not Included
