If there is a rating higher that 5 stars- I would award that. Manuel was our guide - He was so kind, knowledgeable and accommodating to all of our questions, etc. The tour exceeded all of our expectations from the pickup point in Bayeux - a lovely, picturesque town, to of course, the landing beaches and American cemetery. I would highly recommend this sidecar tour and encourage us all to not forget the sacrifices made by this greatest generation made in the name of freedom.

Stand on the sands where history was made and gain a profound understanding of the pivotal events that unfolded at Omaha Beach. On June 6, 1944, this iconic stretch of coastline became the battleground for one of the most consequential military operations in history: the D-Day invasion. As part of Operation Overlord, American troops stormed ashore under a hail of enemy fire, facing daunting obstacles and heavy casualties. Yet, their unwavering resolve and extraordinary bravery paved the way for the liberation of Europe. Today, Omaha Beach stands as a hallowed ground, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by thousands of Allied soldiers who fought and died here. With its pristine sands and serene waters juxtaposed against the haunting remnants of war, Omaha Beach offers visitors a solemn opportunity to reflect on the price of freedom and the enduring legacy of those who gave all for it.

Perched atop the cliffs of Colleville-sur-Mer overlooking Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery stands as a solemn tribute to the courage and sacrifice of over 9,000 Allied soldiers who gave their lives during the Normandy Campaign of World War II. Established in 1944, this meticulously maintained cemetery provides a poignant reminder of the price of freedom. Its rows of white marble crosses and Stars of David offer a sobering sight, while the Memorial, inscribed with the names of over 1,500 missing soldiers, serves as a timeless symbol of honor and remembrance. Visiting this sacred ground is not only an opportunity to pay respects to the fallen but also to reflect on the profound impact of their bravery and commitment to liberty.

Cidrerie Ferme de la Sapiniere (optional)
Today, as you sample their exquisite ciders crafted from locally grown apples, you're tasting the essence of Normandy's heritage. Savor each sip amidst the rustic charm of the cidrerie, where the art of cider-making has been perfected over generations. It's not just a tasting; it's an immersion into the soul of Normandy.

Retour Bayeux: As we pass through Bayeux on our return journey, catch a glimpse of its medieval charm, highlighted by the striking Bayeux Cathedral. Dating back to the 11th century, this Gothic masterpiece is a testament to the town's rich history. Enjoy a fleeting view of Bayeux's quaint streets lined with timber-framed houses, offering a snapshot of its timeless beauty as our adventure come to its end.
