Begin your journey at the British Normandy Memorial, a powerful and beautifully situated tribute overlooking Gold Beach. Here, the names of British and Commonwealth soldiers who fell during the Normandy landings are etched in stone, offering a solemn introduction to the region’s wartime legacy. Continue to the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, set above Omaha Beach. With its rows of white crosses and reflective spaces, it honours the thousands of U.S. troops who gave their lives during the liberation of Europe.
Nearby, Pointe du Hoc tells the story of incredible bravery, where U.S. Rangers scaled sheer cliffs under heavy fire to neutralize German defences. The preserved bunkers and craters offer a stark, authentic window into the events of June 6, 1944. Travel along the coast to visit the iconic D-Day landing beaches—Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword—each a lasting symbol of Allied courage and sacrifice.
Pay your respects at La Cambe German War Cemetery, a quiet and sombre place where over 21,000 German soldiers are buried. The dark stone crosses and peaceful grounds provide a moving contrast to other memorials. In nearby Bayeux, explore the charming old town, home to the world-famous Bayeux Tapestry and the Musée de la Bataille de Normandie, which offers a rich and detailed look at the entire Normandy campaign.
Conclude your journey in the city of Caen, heavily affected by the war and now home to the Caen Memorial Museum. This powerful museum traces the lead-up to WWII, the D-Day landings, and the global impact of the conflict, closing your visit with a message of remembrance and peace.
