With your own WWII-expert guide and comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, you’ll explore how the Allies planned, supplied and executed the Normandy landings beyond the beaches themselves.
Arromanches and the Mulberry Harbors
Your tour begins with pickup in Bayeux and a short drive to Arromanches-les-Bains, on the British Gold Beach sector. Here you walk the historic seafront and viewpoints overlooking the Mulberry B artificial harbor, where huge concrete caissons still lie offshore as silent witnesses to the engineering feat that helped sustain Operation Overlord. Your guide explains how this temporary port was designed, built and used to land men, vehicles and supplies in the critical first weeks after 6 June 1944.
Immersive D-Day Museums
You then visit one or more carefully chosen D-Day museums dedicated to the landings and the artificial harbor system. Through models, original artifacts, archive footage and interactive displays, you gain a clear picture of how the invasion was organized, the roles played by different Allied nations and the timeline of the Battle of Normandy. Your private guide adapts explanations to your level of knowledge, answers questions and helps you connect what you see in the museum with the sites along the coast.
