Program & Itinerary
Private Half-Day Omaha D-Day Tour from Bayeux
Set out from Bayeux on a private half-day D-Day tour dedicated to the American sector, visiting Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc and the Normandy American Cemetery. Designed for travellers who want a powerful introduction to the U.S. landings in just a few hours, this web-only offer combines three emblematic sites with expert commentary and the comfort of a dedicated vehicle.
Walk the Sands of Omaha Beach
Begin at Omaha Beach, the most famous of the American D-Day landing sites and one of the bloodiest beaches on 6 June 1944. Standing on the sand and looking toward the bluffs, your guide explains how the assault unfolded, the obstacles the troops faced and how this stretch of coast became a symbol of American sacrifice in Normandy.
Explore the Cliffs of Pointe du Hoc
Continue to Pointe du Hoc, where U.S. Rangers scaled 30-metre cliffs under fire to neutralise German guns overlooking Utah and Omaha Beaches. As you walk among bomb craters, bunker remains and dramatic sea views, your guide brings the assault to life with stories of individual courage and the strategic importance of this headland.
Pay Tribute at the Normandy American Cemetery
The tour culminates at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking Omaha Beach. Here you’ll walk among perfectly aligned white crosses and Stars of David, visit the memorial and reflecting pool, and take time for quiet reflection on the nearly 9,400 American servicemen and women laid to rest here.
Travel in Comfort with a Private Guide
Throughout this half-day itinerary, you travel in a private, air-conditioned vehicle from Bayeux, with pick-up and drop-off included or available on request. Your English-speaking D-Day specialist shares clear explanations and answers to your questions on site, offering a flexible, personalised experience that goes far deeper than visiting alone.
