Tour de medio día por la tarde en Omaha para visitar las áreas de aterrizaje en la playa de Omaha
Descripción
Este tour es ideal para aquellos que vienen a Bayeux por la mañana y desean visitar la ciudad medieval de Bayeux antes de abordar una visita guiada a los sitios del Día D. También para ser disfrutado por los que ya están en Bayeux, por supuesto! Comenzando en la infame playa de Omaha, hasta el cementerio estadounidense y luego hasta Pointe du Hoc. Desde el fuerte control de armas Alemán de “WN 62” con su vista inconfundible de los sectores Easy y Fox en la playa de Omaha, y la salida de playa “D1” de Vierville sur Mer, lo llevaremos 80 años atrás y reviviremos la historia de nuestros libertadores. Este es un recorrido completo, que lo lleva desde la playa de Omaha a Pointe du Hoc en un segmento de recorrido de cuatro horas. Cuando elijas este tour, sin duda entenderás por qué Omaha es un lugar tan místico en los desembarcos de la Invasión, y será recordado por la eternidad como “Omaha Sangriento” el 6 de junio de 1944 Tours de medio día por la tarde DE salida desde Place de Quebec, Bayeux central, Normandía (de 13:45 a 17:30/6pm) – Cerca del tapiz

Itinerario
Aquí veremos muchos WN - (wiederstandnest - que significa emplazamientos de puntos fuertes de armas alemanas) desde Sainte-Honorine-des-Pertes hasta Vierville. Visitaremos algunos de estos puntos fuertes, que fueron las posiciones alemanas mejor defendidas a lo largo de Omaha. Nos detendremos en WN 62 y WN 65 en los sectores Fox Green y Easy Red del desembarco estadounidense, y WN 73 en Dog Green en Vierville. Este asalto a la playa fue una tarea difícil, dada al Cuerpo V de los EE. UU. (General Gerow) cuya Fuerza O estaba compuesta por la 1ra División de Infantería, la 29na División de Infantería, los Rangers y varias Unidades adjuntas.
Este cementerio, se extiende sobre 172.5 acres, y es uno de los catorce cementerios permanentes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial estadounidenses construidos en suelo extranjero. Contiene los restos de 9387 militares y mujeres asesinados por nuestra libertad. El cementerio americano de Colleville transmite un sentimiento inolvidable de honor, paz y serenidad.
Ubicado en un acantilado a 8 millas al oeste del cementerio, este monumento fue creado por Francia para honrar a los elementos del 2º Batallón de Guardabosques bajo el mando del LTC James E. RUDDER, que escaló el acantilado de 100 pies. El oficial de inteligencia del almirante Hall comentó: "No se puede hacer. ¡Tres ancianas con escobas podrían evitar que los Rangers escalen ese acantilado!". RUDDER respondió al general BRADLEY: "Señor, mis Rangers pueden hacer el trabajo por usted".

Louis Boubat was the best tour guide we had for our entire vacation in France! This was saying a lot considering we have been in and out of most major museums and tourist sites! We are incredibly grateful to have found this tour guide and company! We had a wonderful tour with our family of 5, (3 kids: 14, 12 and 10yo), and he managed to keep them entertained while still educating us on the importance of Omaha Beach, D-Day, American Cemetery and Pointe Du Hoc! Louis was incredibly knowledgeable and was quite passionate about this important event in history. He told great stories about the battle which emphasized its significance and fascinated us. I would hands down strongly recommend Louis Boubat as a tour guide, and I would not see Omaha Beach and these sites without a tour guide. We would have missed most of the important events and sites had we tried to do it alone! Great tour and he really made the history come alive for us! It really made the end of our vacation wonderful! We will be strongly recommending Louis and this tour company to our family and friends! Thank you!
This was the perfect half day trip for my family. Booking was easy through their website and all details were communicated clearly leading up the trip. Pick up was easy. Our guide Thierry, was knowledgeable and engaging. I am a history teacher and I learned so much I can bring to my students. My kids who are 10 and 6 were also welcome and the company and Thierry did everything to also make them welcome. I highly recommend. The half day was perfect and I would consider doing a longer tour when if we return!
My husband and I did the half day Omaha Beach tour with Lucas. He was really excellent. His knowledge, patience and easy going manner made the trip a very enjoyable experience. Well done and thanks for the tip on the Pommeau! Yum!
We loved everything about our tour with Overland! They were able to accommodate us when we asked about availability the next week. They graciously stored our luggage in the van as we arrived in town via train. Remi, our guide, was so knowledgeable and passionate about the tour. We had a perfect amount of time at each of the stops and his information and great reverence literally made the tour. To be fair the air conditioned bus, during the heat waves, was also quite lovely. From booking to dropping us off back at the train station everything was great. It’s a quick walk into town to meet the tour at the start of you would like. We took the train in from Paris, walked into town with our luggage, ate at a great restaurant near the tour pick up and met up with the tour. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough.
We (2 couples) took the afternoon tour with Oliver as a guide. We could not be more pleased with the tour. We departed and completed the ~5 hour tour on schedule and in complete comfort in an 8-person bus. Oliver was extremely knowledgeable and a fun guide. This tour is #1 for a reason. We would love to do it again, only we would opt for the full day tour next time.
Great afternoon learning about Dday and WWII. Very interesting and informative. Our guide Jean Dilasser was wonderful!
Loic was an amazing tour guide who made our family and group feel at ease and engaged in the tour. His knowledge of not only the Omaha Beach campaign but that of the region helped us appreciate all the sacrifice of our ancestors and allied partners. Would 100 percent recommend!
Guillaume was simply one of the best guides we’ve ever gone on a tour with. Friendly, capable, so full of knowledge, and adept at sharing his knowledge in an easy to understand and engaging manner. (Even our fifteen-year-old daughter loved the tour and usually nothing impresses her!) The tour itself: we visited the German bunkers at the top of the bluff, an American cemetery, and Omaha beach. At each stop there was a good mix of guided sections and free exploring. The meet up and drop off were smooth and easy, and the van was comfy - all in all a wonderful experience.
It was a really good balanced guide, with lots of details about history and the area. A truly competent and knowledgeable guide.
Guide Jean Dilasser was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. He also was very accommodating to our young family. Thank you!
