Useful Information
American War Cemetery, Normandy
Your drive through the picturesque Normandy countryside takes you to the Caen Memorial, devoted to illustrations and films about the Second World War and the Normandy landings of June 1944.
After lunch at the Memorial, visit the Pointe du Hoc, a German defense position that was heroically taken by US soldiers during World War II. Continue to the American cemetery of Saint-Laurent, the final resting place of almost 10,000 soldiers. You will also have free time at Omaha Beach to reflect on the site's moving history and visit the Omaha Beach Visitor Center, which describes the American soldiers' operations on the famous beach in June 1944.
Before returning to Paris, stop at the Canadian Memorial at Juno beach and Arromanches to see the remains of the artificial landing harbor that was built by the Allies in less than 15 days.

Driver was prompt in picking us up and friendly and efficient. He provided many details including an introduction to what we would be seeing upon our arrival in Normandy. He was very patient and accommodating - definitely eager to be sure that the experience was good for all of us. Lunch was delightful in the old fort. Truly a perfect experience for us and David (driver) is a gem.
