Rejseplan
National Guard Monument ligger på stedet (WN72), hvor den 29. National Guard Division brød igennem tyske forsvar på D-Day den 6. juni 1944. Monumentet og den oprindelige bunker, som den sidder på, opretholdes af NGEF for at bevare arven og betale ære til alle de nationale guardsmen, der har kæmpet i det europæiske teater.
I Easy Green-sektoren blev der opført to monumenter efter krigen og står stadig overfor stranden: Monument «Bevarelsesbevis» (foto stop på stedet) Dette monument erindrer landingen af de allierede styrker den 6. juni 1944 på Omaha Beach og Europas befrielse. To fresker kan ses på begge sider af monumentet, en dedikeret til den 1. amerikanske infanteriedivision, den anden ved det 116. regimental bekæmpelsesteam fra den 29. amerikanske infanteriedivision. Monument «The Braves» (foto stop på stedet) Et monumentalt værk af billedhuggeren Anilore Banon, som hylder modet af Allierede Forces soldater. Der vil du have lidt tid til at gå langs stranden og måske få fat i en smule sand for at udfylde en lille glasbeholder som en souvenir til at bringe hjem.
Overlord Museum krøniker perioden for den allierede landing indtil frigørelsen af paris. Samlingen blev indsamlet af en person, der begge var vidne til konflikten og involveret i genopbygningen af Normandiet. Personlige genstande fra individuelle soldater og pansrede kampvogne fra de seks hære i Normandiet vil blive præsenteret som en serie rekonstruktioner med over 35 køretøjer, tanke og våben.
Monumentet til 1st US Infantry Division (Rød Sektor / Easy) i form af en hukommelse-obelisk. Obelisken står midt i området Wiederstandsnest (WN62). WN62 var en af de stærkeste forsvarende positioner i dette område. WN62 eller Widerstandsnest 62 (Resistance Nest 62) har udsigt til Easy Red og Fox Green Sectors på OMAHA Beach i Colleville sur Mer. WN62 var den mest kraftfulde modstandsnest på OMAHAs strandkyst.
Vejledningen tager dig nu til at besøge den smukt vedligeholdte amerikanske kirkegård i Colleville sur Mer med udsigt over Omaha Beach i nærheden. Den 180 acre site indeholder 9.387 perfekt justerede hvide kryds og et mindeskapel, der tilføjer de sidste hånd til denne bevægende scene, så de besøgende kan reflektere over krigsprisen. Mens du går langs rækken på rækken af hvide gravsten, vil din historiker guide dele med dig historier om soldater, der kæmpede i viciniteterne og derefter blev tildelt for galanteri de højeste miltære dekorationer. På de manglende vægge er der i en halvcirkelformet have på østsiden af mindesmærket indskrevet 1.557 navne. Rosetter markerer navnene på dem siden genoprettede og identificerede. Mindesmærket består af en halvcirkelformet colonnade med en loggia i hver ende, der indeholder store kort og fortællinger om militære operationer; I midten er bronze statuen, "Spirit of American Youth Rising from the Waves." Et orienteringsbord med udsigt over stranden skildrer landingerne i Normandiet. Vender mod vest ved mindesmærket ser man i forgrunden den reflekterende pool; ud over er gravpladsen med et cirkulært kapel og i den fjerne ende granitstatuer, der repræsenterer USA og Frankrig.

We took a private day tour to Normandy from Paris ! It was well worth the money . Family of 4 travels in a black Mercedes van ! Very comfortable, water and charging cords available! Gilles Lorand was our guide from Finding France tours . He was extremely knowledgeable and very informative! He took us to a wonderful local family owned restaurant. We saw Omaha and Utah beach , the American cemetery and several other sites in Normandy . Gilles walked us through the entire events that transpired up till D-Day and beyond ! Make sure to bring cash to tip !
This tour was beyond our expectations. Régis is an excellent driver, his van is both spotless and comfortable. Régis is well versed in the history of Operation Overlord and his delivery of the facts included maps and relevant photographs that supported the discussion. He planned our tour so that we were either before the other tours at the various locations or after. This allowed us to have the time that we each needed to reflect without feeling rushed and to take photographs that did not include hordes of people. When the emotionality of the events that occurred during Operation Overlord took hold, he was both compassionate and understanding. Régis is a true gem.
Had a great trip and Regis was a wonderful guide that made the tour very informative. We will certainly use Regis the next time we tour Omaha Beach or any war time destinations.
My daughter and I went to Normandy Beach. It was one of our favorite places. Regis, our guide was the best! He was so knowledgeable, patient, and kind. His English was very good! He dropped us off right in front of our hotel. We felt very safe with him. I would definitely book again with Viator.
My wife and I just spent a week in Paris and the highlight of our trip was the day with spent with Regis in Normandy. To start, Regis was communicative and punctual as far as instructing us where to meet him early in the morning. He gave a warm welcome and we got on the road for our journey to Normandy. On the way, Regis provided valuable historical information about the Allied forces invasion of Normandy to give us context for what we were about to see firsthand. We spent the day on the beaches, museums, and the cemetery under his guidance. Regis has extensive knowledge and has a passion for his job making his tour such a great, memorable experience. I definitely recommend hiring Regis and Adrian Roads if you're looking for the best tour of Normandy!
Just got back from this amazing and very moving trip to Normandy. Regis was our guide and he was the perfect mix of information and space to enjoy the day. We were picked up at the door to our hotel and after a long day dropped off there as well. We stopped at Pont Du Hoc, Omaha beach (where Regis encouraged me to collect a tiny bit of sand), the Caen Peace museum and bunker, and the american cemetery. Such an important piece of history and a truly priceless experience. I strongly recommend this tour it was once in a lifetime!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend it. Regis did an outstanding job from pick-up to return to Paris and all in between. He was pleasant to be around (important as we're all together approximately 12 hours!) and very informative as he took us to many parts of Normandy. Walking on Omaha Beach, visiting the American Cemetery and more, with Regis' informative commentary, was a memorable experience.
