The Turning Point of the Second World War

On 6 June 1944, 156,000 Allied soldiers stormed five Normandy beaches in the largest seaborne invasion in history. The landscape still carries the weight of that day — from the crater-scarred Pointe du Hoc to the endless rows of white crosses above Omaha Beach.

Your private chauffeur drives you from Paris along the Normandy coast, allowing you to visit Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery, Pointe du Hoc and the Mémorial de Caen in a single, emotionally resonant day. We recommend departing early to make the most of the time on the ground.

D-Day — The Normandy Landings
Highlights

Must-See Attractions

The most significant sites of 6 June 1944

01

Omaha Beach

The bloodiest of the five D-Day beaches, where American troops suffered devastating losses in the first hours. Walking the sand today is a profound and humbling experience.

02

American Cemetery

9,387 white marble crosses and Stars of David overlook the sea above Omaha Beach — one of the most moving places in Europe, maintained with extraordinary care.

03

Pointe du Hoc

Ranger Battalion 2 scaled these 30-metre cliffs under fire. The German bunkers, bomb craters and fortifications are preserved exactly as the battle left them.

04

Mémorial de Caen

The finest WWII museum in France tells the full story of the conflict — from the rise of fascism to the Liberation — through immersive exhibitions and rare archival footage.
