Your journey begins with an easy pick-up in Le Havre, where an experienced guide will meet you at the cruise port or your hotel.
Le Havre is located on the Normandy coast and played an important role during World War II.

Deutscher Kriegsfriedhof La Cambe
At the German Cemetery, you will learn about a different perspective on the events of D-Day. Located in a quiet and peaceful setting, this site offers a moment for reflection and remembrance. Set against tranquil surroundings, this solemn site commemorates the sacrifices made by all parties involved in the conflict.
Rows of simple, carefully arranged gravestones highlight the scale of the loss and serve as a strong reminder of the human cost of war. Visiting this site helps provide a broader understanding of World War II and its lasting impact.

Die Pointe du Hoc
At the steep cliffs of Pointe du Hoc, visitors step into a key moment of the D-Day landings during World War II. This headland, located between Utah and Omaha Beach, was an important German defense position with strong fortifications and artillery that threatened the Allied forces.
On June 6, 1944, U.S. Army Rangers climbed the nearly 100-foot cliffs under heavy enemy fire to take control of the site. Their bravery played an important role in the success of the Normandy invasion. Today, Pointe du Hoc remains a powerful historical site, marked by bomb craters, damaged bunkers, and a monument honoring the Rangers’ sacrifice. Walking through the area offers a meaningful look into the events that took place here and the courage of those involved.

Omaha Strand
One of the most moving stops on the tour is Omaha Beach, often known as “Bloody Omaha.” It was one of the main landing sites during the D-Day invasion of Normandy in World War II and witnessed some of the heaviest fighting of the operation. Today, the beach stands as a strong reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the Allied forces during this historic event. Visitors will have time to walk along the shore, reflect on what happened there, and pay their respects.
At this point in the day, the team will distribute packed lunches. You will receive a homemade baguette lunch, along with water and a dessert.

Amerikanischer Friedhof in der Normandie
American Cemetery, Colleville-sur-Mer
The American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer offers a moment of solemn reflection amid the rolling cliffs above Omaha Beach. Here, more than 9,000 white crosses and Stars of David stretch out in perfect symmetry—each one marking a life lost during the Normandy invasion. As you walk the peaceful grounds, the scale of the sacrifice becomes deeply personal.
A quiet stop at the Memorial Chapel invites contemplation. The setting, with its manicured lawns and sea views, honors both individual heroism and the shared legacy of the Allied forces.

Return to Le Havre
As your journey draws to a close, the drive back to Le Havre offers time for quiet reflection. The peaceful Normandy countryside rolls past your window, a stark contrast to the wartime stories that unfolded just miles away. This landscape, once marked by conflict, now speaks of resilience and remembrance.
Use this time to absorb all you’ve seen—from the windswept heights of Pointe du Hoc to the silent rows at Colleville-sur-Mer. Each stop added another layer to your understanding of D-Day—not just as a historic event, but as a collection of human stories. As you return to port, carry with you not only the facts, but the feeling of having stood in places where history was made.
