Volledige dag sightseeingtour door de Amerikaanse sectoren van de invasie van D-Day in Normandië + Airborne Museum. Een ervaren Engelssprekende gids zal u de slagvelden laten zien en de gebeurtenissen die hebben plaatsgevonden in detail uitleggen.
We houden ervan om op schema te rijden en als u niet op de aangegeven instaptijd op het vertrekpunt bent, vertrekken we. Er zullen anderen aan boord zijn die zijn aangekomen zoals gevraagd en we willen hun ervaring niet beïnvloeden. Als u te laat arriveert, moet u op eigen kosten een taxi nemen om de rondleiding in te halen. We raden u ten zeerste aan om vroeg aan te komen voor de tour, aangezien er geen restitutie in aanmerking komt als u de dienst mist.
Je krijgt een goed overzicht van de strandlandingen die plaatsvonden op Omaha Beach op 6 juni 1944. Daarna heb je ongeveer 15 minuten vrije tijd om over het zand te lopen (afhankelijk van de getijdenomstandigheden) waar Amerikaanse troepen landden. D-dag.
De gids leidt je naar de ongelooflijke Amerikaanse begraafplaats en legt veel belangrijke feiten uit over wanneer deze werd gebouwd, waarom deze zich bevindt waar het is en veel verhalen over de mannen en vrouwen die hier begraven liggen. Je krijgt ongeveer 45 minuten vrije tijd om op eigen gelegenheid te verkennen.
Je leert over de rol van de Amerikaanse Rangers op D-Day, die de kliffen bij Pointe-Du-Hoc moesten beklimmen om Duitse langeafstandskanonnen tot zwijgen te brengen. Je krijgt voldoende vrije tijd om op eigen gelegenheid te verkennen na de uitleg van je gids.
Inbegrepen in de kosten van uw tour is een kaartje voor toegang tot het indrukwekkende Airborne Museum. Uw gids geeft u voldoende tijd om deze fantastische locatie te bezichtigen, waardoor u meer inzicht krijgt in de Airborne-operatie.
Dit kleine Normandische stadje lag aan de hoofdweg N13 die Cherbourg met Bayeux en Caen verbond. Dit was de hoofdroute die zowel Duitsers als Amerikanen nodig zouden hebben om de broodnodige uitrusting te mobiliseren tijdens de slag om Normandië. Ste Mere Eglise was een doel voor de 82nd Airborne Paratroopers en is beroemd gemaakt door de film The Longest Day. De Amerikaanse parachutist John Steele kwam tijdens de val ongelukkig op de kerktoren terecht.
Terwijl we rijden, laten we je enkele van de typische heggen zien waar de geallieerden doorheen moesten vechten. We zullen uitleggen hoe de Duitsers het landschap dat bekend staat als het 'bocage' voor hun defensieve voordeel gebruikten en hoe de geallieerden deze overwonnen.
Uw gids geeft u een gedetailleerd verslag van de landingen door de Amerikaanse 4e Infanteriedivisie voordat u wat vrije tijd krijgt om de vele monumenten die zich hier bevinden te verkennen.
We stoppen kort om u een van onze favoriete monumenten in Normandië te laten zien. Richard Winters werd gekozen om het leiderschap te vertegenwoordigen vanwege zijn wereldwijde bekendheid door de tv-miniserie Band of Brothers.
We zullen de tijd nemen om de betekenis van dit prachtige kleine dorp uit te leggen. Dit was een doel van de 101st Airborne om de troepen te helpen landen op Utah Beach.

The driver (Charles) was well-versed in WWII history. He knew soldier numbers, movement, and battle outcomes. My uncle landed on Utah Beach on D Day and made it out of WWII alive. Another traveler’s relative also landed on Utah Beach in D Day. Charles went out of his way to obtain information regarding this individual and my own uncle. He was able to drive on the same pathway as the man did in 1944. Overall, a great value.
Extensive tour of beaches and the American Cemetary led by a very knowledgeable guide with a good sense of humor, Charles, who went above and beyond to make our experience special and memorable.
We had Jordan for our trip. He was great extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of of the history of WWII
We did the Band of Brothers tour with Robin, it was excellent. He is an incredibly knowledgeable guide and able to answer so many of the questions which our group had. The pacing of the full-day tour was good and the details provided during the trip and at each stop helped paint a picture of the D-Day landing. We would recommend this tour. Merci Robin!
Remy was an extremely knowledgeable guide for our tour to Omaha and Utah beaches. He was an amazing story teller and made the battles come alive. My father was in D Day on June 7th as part of the battle. The experience was extremely meaningful to me. Remy honored the sacrifices of the brave men and told their story in great detail. I highly recommend.
Jordan was the most friendly and informative tour guide! The information was suitable for knowledgeable and less familiar participants, and the stories he provided were amazing. The bus was comfortable and easy to find and the lunch stop was also lovely. Highly recommend!

Our guide was Jordan and he was terrific. He had a great command of the important dates and details of the Normandy invasion of Omaha and Utah beaches by the United States troops. Jordan met us at 8:45am which is a good time to head for the beaches in order to beat the crowds coming from Paris. Along the drive Jordan provided us with a brief history of the region beginning with the Norman invasion of the area to the German invasion of Poland that began WWII. He explained the circumstances which brought the US into the war, and specifically, to the invasion on June 6, 1944. He provided an overview of the five beaches, and specific challenges - from the air, land and sea - which the Americans faced and had to overcome. The tour included numerous stops, such as: Omaha and Utah beaches, the American Cemetary, and our lunch stop at Sainte-Mere-Eglise including the Airborne Museum. It is surprising the number of monuments commemorating D-Day, showing the appreciation the French people had for the Allies who helped to liberate their country. This is a good tour for anyone interested in WWII history and the United State's role in shaping it. Or for those who would just enjoy a nice day in the French countryside.
