This day trip from Paris takes you by coach or minivan to the Normandy coast, covering key World War II sites linked to the D-Day landings. The full trip lasts about 13 hours, including a 3- to 4-hour drive each way and around 5 hours spent touring Normandy. The tour visits Pointe du Hoc, where US Army Rangers scaled cliffs to destroy German defenses. You'll see the war-damaged landscape with bunkers and craters still visible. Next is Omaha Beach, notable for the intense American assault in the early hours of June 6, 1944. Then you spend about an hour at the American Cemetery and Memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, where nearly 10,000 US soldiers are buried. Lunch is available at Arromanches with free time to explore the cliffs and remains of the artificial harbor built by the Allies. If you choose the small-group option, lunch includes two courses and a drink (wine, beer, soft drink, or water). The final stop may include a 15-minute visit to the Juno Beach Center, focused on Canadian troops’ efforts. The tour returns to Paris by about 8:00 PM. Hotel pickup is available within Paris if selected.
