Discover Omaha Beach and the American Cemetery on a poignant guided tour, combining remembrance, testimonies, and remnants of the Atlantic Wall.
Immerse yourself in the history of the Normandy landings with a local guide during this two-hour tour of one of the most iconic sites of June 6, 1944: Omaha Beach and the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer.
Begin your journey in the Easy Red and Fox Green sectors, at the foot of Widerstandsnest 62 (Wn 62), one of the most formidable strongpoints of the Atlantic Wall. Through the poignant stories of American and German soldiers, your guide will bring the first hours of D-Day to life, focusing on the human experiences of those who fought here.
Explore the remains of German positions (trenches, bunkers) while learning about the organization of the German defense and the violence of the fighting on this beach, sadly nicknamed "Bloody Omaha."
The tour continues at the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, an essential place of remembrance where more than 9,300 soldiers are buried. You will discover the stories of some of these men, the symbolism of the site, and the importance of the place in the international duty of remembrance.
