D-Day Normandy Landing Beaches Full Day Private Tour From Bayeux

On June 6, 1944, the Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy, beginning the liberation of German-occupied France and marking a decisive turning point in World War II. Your full-day D-Day tour starts at Courseulles-sur-Mer, where over 14,000 soldiers of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division stormed Juno Beach, an 8-kilometre stretch of sand that still echoes with courage and sacrifice. Walking along the beach, you can reflect on the bravery of those who risked everything to secure freedom.

Next, visit the Cross of Lorraine, an 18-meter-high monument honoring General Charles de Gaulle’s return to French soil on June 14, 1944. Explore the nearby memorial park overlooking the sea, a place that celebrates resilience and national pride. Continue to Arromanches, where the remains of the artificial “Mulberry” harbour showcase a remarkable feat of wartime engineering that transported 600,000 tonnes of concrete and essential equipment across the Channel to serve as a base for Allied troops.

Your tour also includes a stop at the US Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, perched above Omaha Beach, where 9,387 American soldiers are laid to rest. The perfectly aligned white crosses and the serene setting provide a solemn moment to honor the human cost of the liberation and reflect on the sacrifices made.

Finally, visit Pointe du Hoc, a dramatic cliffside that witnessed one of the most difficult battles of D-Day. Of the 225 Army Rangers who scaled the cliffs under intense fire, only 90 survived to continue the mission. This site remains a powerful testament to bravery, resilience, and the extraordinary courage of those who fought to secure freedom in Normandy.
