D-Day Beaches of Normandy
On the 6th June 1944, the Allied Armies landed in Normandy to recapture 80 km of the Normandy coast. The first hour of the invasion alone saw 100,000 men and 20,000 vehicles bought ashore - the sheer size and complexity of ‘Operation Overlord’ was enormous!
Now you can discover first-hand just how remarkable ‘Operation Overlord’ was and how it changed the course of history forever. On this fascinating tour into modern day history, we’ll visit the sites and beaches of the D-Day landings, and the keypoints of many battles, such as the site of the Merville Battery. There is a very strong sense of history among these now peaceful towns and beaches and it is both a moving and rewarding experience to visit them.
