Led by a knowledgeable local guide, this customizable experience focuses on the U.S. landings and airborne operations that shaped the liberation of Normandy.

The journey includes time at Omaha Beach, where visitors stand on the sands and bluffs that witnessed some of the fiercest fighting of D-Day, followed by a moving visit to the Normandy American Cemetery overlooking the shoreline. The route continues to Utah Beach, where landings proved more successful thanks to airborne support inland.
