Normandy American D-Day Beaches Full Day Tour from Bayeux

1.Normandy American D-Day Beaches Full Day Tour from Bayeux

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,103 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $169Our pick

Spend nine hours tracing the American D-Day campaign with a guide such as Eric, Alex, Igor, Julie, or Kate. Walk Omaha Beach and Pointe du Hoc, pause at the American Cemetery, see the Utah Beach Museum and its B-26 Marauder, then visit Sainte-Mère-Église.

“I have done a lot of Viator and Get Your Guide tours in Europe. This was by far the best. Eric, on top of being extremely knowledgeable, was personable and experienced. I studied and read a lot to prepare for this trip, but it paled compared with Eric's knowledge. You are missing out if you don't do this tour.”

There are tour guides who take you around and provide rote facts about what you’re seeing and then there are guides like Matt who clearly care deeply about the historical context and the stories of the people who were there and participated in the events that happened there. He made it a great experience, was friendly and funny, and had great stories to tell on the trips between locations. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who has any interest whatsoever in D-Day history! Thanks Matt!”

It was very windy and rainy during my visit, but with a rain jacket, borrowed umbrella (thanks Anne-Sophie), and appropriate shoes, it was still an incredible experience. I recommend walking back to the visitor center instead of taking the shuttle. Even in the rain, the extra views and fresh air was worth it.”
