Reservations from August 2019 onwards (and for 2020) are being processed manually until everything is back online on the new server – we will be back up and running by mid August, so please keep checking back.
In the meantime, please drop us a line with your dates. We are still managing to respond to emails within 24hrs. Often quicker.
We hope you have a GREAT time here in Normandy during this very special year!

Group Tours (2020 – €110 p/p): Spacious 8/16-seat minibus (NEW vehicles 2020), and tours are led by a native English-speaker guide.
Please email us your chosen D-Day Tour (e.g. American Beaches Tour, British/Canadian Beaches Tour) or Cultural Tour (Mont Saint-Michel, Giverny etc), your requested date(s), passenger numbers, and requested pick up location.
For full day Private Tours We can provide a Mon-Fri Bayeux station pick up (at 09.16) or Mon-Sun 09:45 Bayeux/Caen Hotel pick up with a full day D-Day tour and drop off at 17:45 (in plenty of time to catch the 18.35 back to Paris).
Full day Group Tours depart twice (daily from Bayeux Place de Québec at 08:45 and Bayeux Station at 09:45 [Mon-Fri]) and half-day Group Tours depart daily from Place de Québec at 08:45 & 13:45 (4-hr tour). Note: Station drop off available at 18:00 on afternoon half-day tour.
We do also provide a flexible Chauffeur-Guide service for a short 5 – 7hr hire (ideal for shorter tours or shuttles, e.g. Cultural Visits to Giverny, Le Mont Saint-Michel) or a longer hires (perfect for longer distances, e.g. Paris Airport Shuttles with transport options or extended D-Day Tours – Airborne). *Multiple-day options/combinations available too.
Our booking system is currently ‘active’ (simply invisible for the moment) and we are completing bookings manually throughout June/July 2019. We will email and send you a fully detailed order (complete with unique QR Code) for your approval prior to a secure payment link (card/cash on the day welcome too).
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

A full day Day Tour of the American landing zones and beaches typically includes:
- Angoville-au-Plain (a little church transformed into a field hospital by 2 American paratroopers)
- Ste. Marie-du-Mont (101st US Airborne)
- Utah Beach (4th US Division). On the way from Utah, we will stop at the monument dedicated to Richard Winters, hero of the series “Band of Brothers”
- Sainte-Mère-Eglise (where the famous American 82nd US Airborne paratrooper J. Steele got snagged on top of the church. This is our lunch stop too)
- Mission Impossible: La Pointe-du-Hoc (2nd US Rangers)
- Omaha Beach: Vierville (29th ID, National Guard Monument)
- The Normandy Colleville American Cemetery.
These are the stops but there will also be a lot of monuments, bunkers and sites to see from the vehicle on the way.
There’s enough time to visit the Airborne Museum in Sainte-Mère-Eglise (at lunchtime) and free-time at stops to explore on your own and take photos. Plenty of rest stops and restroom facilities enroute. Chilled water, juice and hot coffee & snacks on board too.
*Enquiries welcome from Ports of Cherbourg/Honfleur.
We look forward to welcoming you on board!
Best Wishes from Normandy,
