Now that you know why and how this is a one-of-a-kind experience, imagine walking the beaches where it all happened. Whether it’s the fierce landings at Utah Beach by U.S. forces, the British assault on Gold Beach, or the Canadian breakthrough at Juno Beach, each tour offers a unique glimpse into the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought. You can choose from 3 types of tours:
No, these tours are suitable for all ages, although the terrain may be challenging for young children or those with mobility issues.
Yes, you can visit the beaches on your own, but a guided tour offers a much richer and more engaging experience with expert insights and historical context.
Yes, some tours offer visits to lesser-known but significant sites beyond the major beaches. These might include Pointe du Hoc, where U.S. Rangers scaled cliffs to take out German artillery, and Pegasus Bridge, where British airborne troops made their historic landings.
Yes, souvenir shops are available at major sites like the Normandy American Cemetery and Utah Beach Museum, selling books, models, and memorabilia.
While the beaches themselves may be challenging due to their sandy and uneven terrain, many of the key D-Day sites, such as the American Cemetery and Utah Beach Museum, have been made more accessible for visitors with limited mobility. It’s recommended to check with the tour provider for specific accessibility options, including transport between sites and wheelchair-friendly routes.
Most guided D-Day tours provide a comprehensive historical context, covering not only the events of the landings but also the planning and strategy leading up to Operation Overlord. You’ll learn about the airborne landings, the preparation and challenges faced by the Allies, and the aftermath of the landings, in addition to the significance of the beaches themselves.
The tour was as advertised. We traveled to a number of sites related to the D-Day invasion. The tour guide provided background informaiton on the sites isn an organized manner.
I'm so glad I found this option to see Normandy from Paris after exploring numerous other options to get out there on my own on a solo trip. I will definitely keep this group in mind when I return to tour other places they do.
Steve is very well informed, and he explains the history clearly.
When we booked our reservation, it was confirmed, but when we arrived for the event, we were told that our reservation was made too late and they didn't have room for us. This was devastating for us, as it was the only day we had to do this tour. We were told we would receive a refund, but we have yet to receive it.

The tomb is an incredibly beautiful structure and the armory museum is the best I have ever seen. The quality and uniqueness of the displays are the excellent
Hello, the visit was amazing. Building , the green marble , the exhibition etc everything was a great discovery and the ease of buying tickets with you perfect .
It was an unforgettable experience to see the grave of a great man in the history of France In general the whole place was full of historical monuments. Worth a visit!!!!
We didn't wait at all and were able to visit a great collection at our own pace. My big boy really enjoyed it and was especially keen to see Napoleon's tomb.
It was great to see a final resting place for someone so famous & relevant in history. The buildings were spectacular
Incredible place , all the history around , the beautiful construcción. Amazing 🤩
Beautiful place! Definitely coming back
Very easy to book and to visit the place by tourists
Very nice experience, very nice museum. Magical places
We entered quickly, to see a great museum
No waiting, it was perfect and all four of us enjoyed the visit.
Very good experience, the ticket accepted on any entrance of the museum departmens. But (not sure) internet should be active.
The museum is well planned and laid out. Very informative about France's history. Loved the information about the French resistance during Workd War Ii. Napoleon tomb building is fantastic.
Tutto molto interessante. Peccato solo che i biglietti per i vambini, anche se gratuiti, non si possano fare direttamente da app.
The best part was seeing the Done Church and Napoleon's tomb. We didn't realise you didn't have to book the Army museum to see this church. The army museum was ok but we found it a bit boring not being part of our history.
We had to show out tickets multiple times during the visit. I found it difficult to keep having to find the actual ticket amongst the many confirmation notices I received. Otherwise the visit and services were fine.
This experience is perfect to get tickets easily through the web, it includes the visit to all the exhibitions and it is worth visiting this complex.
I received the ticket by e-mail on the day of my event. So I was able to photograph the barcode and everything went smoothly when I got in. Booking was easy on the website. No complications.
Accelerated entry made no sense. Paid €10 more but just had to go in where everyone else went in. So unnecessary to pay extra for it. Otherwise fine.
It was one of the best trips i ever had , the tour guide was very good she explained the main historical parts of the museum clearly and made it enjoyable during whole tour , the most amazing part was the gardens it was breath taking experience it took 3 hours to walk the whole garden, even though it waslittle tiring , it was amazing i definitely want to go there again
The first thing I liked was the speed with which we entered due to the tickets we had booked before the visit. Then we were very impressed to enter a site so representative of France and where it was the mausoleum of all the Greats of the country. The visitors were also very respectful.
Beautiful museum and one of the less crowded sites in Paris. Still a lot of people, but you could actually see things. The tomb and its surroundings are breathtaking. Chapel is gorgeous. Only recommendation would be to add some other languages to the descriptions in the different areas (Liberation wing, especially.)
The visit to the Tumba de Napoléon was impressive, both historically and aesthetically. What's more, the advance purchase of the label makes access easier and quicker. A visit to this monument really is time and money reversed.
Skip the line was very nice and the line was small. Visited the tomb 1st and was not crowded. Then to the museum. Impressed with the collections. The diversity and quantity.
We didn't wait in line because there were no people. The museum closes the front door from 12-2pm and you have to enter through the back door. They should warn you.
