Full-Day and Custom D-Day Itineraries

Not every traveller has the same priorities.

Some visitors want to focus completely on the American sector. Others may have a specific family history or military unit they want to follow.

Your itinerary can therefore be adapted according to nationality, historical interests, family military history, museums you wish to visit, restaurant plans, mobility requirements and your train or hotel schedule.

Lunch During Your D-Day Tour

Lunch can be incorporated according to your schedule.

The Normandy coast and Bayeux offer several suitable options depending on the itinerary.

If you want a restaurant stop, we recommend allowing enough time so that the day does not become unnecessarily rushed.
