L
Lazaro – United States

Very interesting and emotional day. Helps to understand the sacrifice made by our brave soilders in WWII.

D
David – Germany

A wonderful tour on the topic of D-Day. Tour guide Bert is excellent. He gave good organizational instructions (times, meeting points, restrooms, etc.) and provided excellent support with the content. He was always available to answer questions, accompanied us at the stops, and conveyed the topic in an excellent emotional way. We'll definitely do the tour again, but only with Bert as our guide and if the bus is larger. The small bus was very cramped for long periods of sitting and with frequent boarding and disembarking. The ventilation in the back was also very loud, making the announcements sometimes difficult to understand.

Full description

Join this guided shore trip, tailored for cruise ship passengers docking at Le Havre port.

This relaxing but fascinating excursion provides an in-depth look at the D-Day landing sites aboard a comfortable modern bus, led by a guide who is both passionate and knowledgeable about WWII history.

To ensure your comfort during this comprehensive tour, we include a complimentary homemade packed lunch featuring a baguette, water, and a dessert. This allows you more time to absorb the sites and stories without the need to rush.

From the moment we pick you up at Le Havre port, your day of historical exploration begins. We'll visit key locations such as Omaha Beach, where the significant battles of D-Day unfolded, and Pointe du Hoc, renowned for the daring ascent by U.S. Army Rangers. These sites offer a real sense of the scale and ferocity of the battles that took place.

Another poignant stop is the American Cemetery, where you can reflect on the vast sacrifice made for freedom, underscored by the endless rows of white crosses and Stars of David.

Throughout the tour, your guide will provide detailed narratives that bring the courage and strategy of these historic events to life. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the monumental challenges faced during Operation Overlord and the immense bravery that led to the eventual success of the Allies.

We guarantee a timely return to Le Havre port, ensuring you reboard your cruise ship with both a deeper appreciation of Normandy's critical role in WWII and plenty of time to prepare for the evening's activities.
