Dive into the heart of the D-Day story with a local guide on this 2-hour tour of one of the most iconic places of June 6, 1944: Omaha Beach and the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer.
Start your journey in the Easy Red and Fox Green sectors, right at the base of Widerstandsnest 62 (Wn 62), one of the most formidable strongholds of the Atlantic Wall. Through the poignant stories of American and German soldiers, your guide will help you relive the first hours of D-Day, focusing on the human experiences of those who fought here.
Check out the remains of German positions (trenches, bunkers) and learn about the German defense and the intense fighting on this beach, sadly known as ‘Bloody Omaha’.
The tour continues at the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, a must-see place of remembrance where over 9,300 soldiers are laid to rest. You’ll get to know the stories of some of these men, the symbolism of the site, and how important it is for international remembrance.
