Longues

Hollywood has done its part to recreate the gritty reality of the D-Day landings, but forgotten to many is the hard-fought conflict that followed the initial beach assaults. For 100 days, battle reigned in Normandy.

Using archival footage, much of which has gone unseen until now, filmmaker Frédéric Lumière has recreated a narrative of the events throughout the conflict. Presented with 360° visuals, you'll feel completely immersed in the past.

Join a half-day tour from Bayeux to key D-Day landing sites. Visit the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc, where US Rangers conducted an assault. Head to Omaha Beach to see a major landing zone from June 6, 1944. 

Conclude at the Normandy American Cemetery, the resting place of thousands of soldiers. Travel in a Mercedes minivan and hear detailed commentary from an English-speaking local guide.

Travel to Mont Saint-Michel, a landmark in France. Depart from Bayeux in an air-conditioned minivan, passing through the landscapes of Normandy toward this tidal island.

Follow an English-speaking guide through the medieval village and climb the 350 steps leading to the Abbey, a Gothic site and UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

Hear stories of monks and medieval architecture as you walk through the Abbey's halls and view the bay.

After the guided tour, spend free time wandering the cobbled streets, shopping for local items, or eating a soufflé omelet at La Mère Poulard restaurant.

Visit the important sites of the D-Day landings with an English-speaking guide. Begin at Utah Beach, where American soldiers began their landing on June 6, 1944. 

Spend time at Omaha Beach, the site of heavy fighting and losses. At Pointe du Hoc, see the high cliffs where U.S. Army Rangers carried out a difficult mission. In Sainte-Mère-Église, learn about the first paratroopers who arrived before dawn and the impact on the local community. 

The tour includes a visit to the Normandy American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, a place of remembrance for those who gave their lives. Travel in a comfortable minivan with clear, informative commentary throughout the day.
