Itinerary

Your tour begins at your hotel in central Paris

Meet your expert guide and private driver directly at your hotel in central Paris. Settle into your comfortable private van and head northwest through the rolling French countryside toward the Normandy coast.

Explore Utah Beach Museum

Step inside a restored German bunker built on the beach where American troops first landed on June 6, 1944. The Utah Beach Museum traces Operation Overlord through artifacts, aircraft, and personal accounts from D-Day.

Sample Normandy's cider and calvados

After free time for lunch (at your own expense), it’s time to tour a traditional Normandy cider house and learn how the region's orchards are crafted into world-class spirits. Sample hard cider, Calvados, and Pommeau in an authentic rural setting far from the weight of the morning.

Discover the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc

Walk the crater-scarred clifftops where Allied rangers scaled sheer rock under German fire on D-Day. The bunkers and shell craters remain largely untouched, offering a raw and powerful look at what the assault cost.

Stand on the sands of Omaha Beach

This 5-mile stretch of Normandy coast saw the heaviest U.S. casualties of D-Day. Pause at the water's edge to reflect on the thousands of young soldiers who stormed these shores under relentless German fire.

Pay tribute at the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer

Nearly 10,000 American soldiers are buried here in rows of white marble markers on a bluff above Omaha Beach. Your expert guide brings their stories to life, including Medal of Honor recipient Theodore Roosevelt Jr.

Your tour ends at your hotel in central Paris

After a poignant final visit, your private driver heads back to Paris on the scenic highway. You'll arrive in the early evening, dropped off directly at your hotel with stories that will stay with you long after.

Private Normandy D-Day Tour from Paris

We so enjoyed this day trip outside of Paris and this very important tour. We were driven in total comfort, enjoying views of the charming French countryside as we approached our destination. Our tour guide Thelma was a wealth of information, creating the perfect balance of providing us with essential history to more appreciate what we were seeing, and stepping back to let us absorb and soak in the moments, allowing us to process the importance and gravity of where we were. Thelma was a true delight, her kind and gentle nature was on display as she spoke about the respect she had for the American soldiers. A spontaneous highlight was being able to be present for the playing of TAPS at the American Cemetery as a group of Veterans were paying their respects to fallen soldiers at the memorial site. It was an emotional moment. The tour was full of history as it happened, handled with the utmost respect and kindness. I would definitely recommend this tour if you have more than a few days to spend in Paris.

An amazing experience!

Highly recommend! Having a driver (being picked up at the hotel since it was an early morning was wonderful!) and a guide to help us as we visited the sites was fantastic.
