Normandy beaches

Stop at Utah Beach to grab a bite at the Le Roosevelt Restaurant before visiting the Utah Beach Landing Museum inside a preserved German bunker. Your guide will share bloodcurdling details of how the US Armed Forces stormed the beach and took Utah during WWII. After a brief pause, resume your trip to Omaha Beach's Normandy American Cemetery & Memorial. Watch a short moving documentary on American forces and explore the permanent exhibitions of the visitor center. As you walk through the cemetery say a silent prayer for the troops that fought the Battle of Normandy and witness the wreath-laying ceremony honoring the service and suffering of WWII veterans. You might even be chosen to take part in the event with your squad.

End your day with a reflective stroll on the beach pondering upon life's fragility, before boarding the shuttle with newfound gratitude. On your way back to Paris you'll break your journey at Bosgouet.
