Itinerary
1. Omaha Beach, beach in the American sector where troops of the 1st and 29th American Infantry Division landed on June 6, 1944. It will subsequently be nicknamed "Bloody Omaha", the guide who will accompany you will detail the events experienced by these soldiers so that you can feel the emotion that this beach can release.
2. An emblematic place on the landing beaches, this cemetery overlooks Omaha beach and is extremely rich in symbolism. Overwhelmed by emotion, you will discover every detail of this place of memory accompanied by your guide.
3. German fortification on the British sector of Gold is one of the symbols of the famous Atlantic Wall. You will understand how a German battery works and see the original cannons.
4. Normandy is one of the regions with the highest tides in the world. During the Battle of Normandy, supplies would have been compromised if British engineering had not imagined this technical feat of assembling floating ports called Mulberry.
