• Cruise Terminal Le Havre — The journey begins with a warm welcome at the cruise terminal, where local Le Havre representatives and an experienced English-speaking guide greet the Operator. Fresh croissants from a nearby Le Havre bakery await upon arrival.
• Arromanches 360 Circular Cinema — After a two-hour drive through the Normandy countryside, the first stop is Pointe du Hoc, where untouched bomb craters from the war remain visible. Guests can explore the bunkers to see how the Germans used the cliffs to their advantage and imagine how American forces scaled the heights to capture the battery.
• Longues-sur-Mer — This is the only German coastal gun battery in Normandy where the original 155mm weapons are still in place, still aimed toward the English Channel. No other shared tour from Le Havre includes this remarkable site.
• Omaha Beach — The tour then continues to Omaha Beach, passing along 8 km of coastline facing the English Channel. Ashore, guests will find Les Braves, a sculpture honoring the soldiers who fought in the war. There is also an opportunity to stop for a quick lunch near the beach.
• Normandy American Cemetery — Next, the tour proceeds to the Normandy American Cemetery to pay tribute to those who fought in the battle. The visitor center features a detailed exhibition about the war. This is the final stop before the two-hour drive back to the port or hotel.
• Cruise Terminal Le Havre — At the end of an extraordinary day on the D-Day landing beaches, the driver returns the Operator to the Le Havre cruise terminal comfortably and on time. With over 15 years of experience organizing shore excursions for cruise passengers, the ship’s schedule is monitored throughout the day, guaranteeing a return before the all-aboard time — allowing guests to experience the full depth of Normandy’s history with complete peace of mind.

This is the most complete D-Day shore excursion from Le Havre and the only one that includes an English-speaking guide, a museum ticket, a freshly made sandwich from a local bakery, and two stops most tours never visit.

The day begins at the Arromanches 360° Cinema: a 19-minute circular panoramic film that blends original 1944 footage with present-day images across nine surrounding screens. There are no seats—guests stand at the center as June 6, 1944 unfolds around them. Nothing prepares visitors for it.

Next is Longues-sur-Mer, the only German coastal gun battery in Normandy where the original 155mm weapons remain in place, still aimed toward the English Channel. No other shared tour from Le Havre includes this stop.

Then comes Omaha Beach, the actual sand from Saving Private Ryan, followed by the Normandy American Cemetery, where 9,387 white crosses face the sea above the bluffs. The expert guide leads guests through every stop in English. The museum ticket is included, the sandwich is included, and the return to the ship is guaranteed.
