Why take this tour?
The Normandy D-Day Tour from Paris by 2nd Class Rail is one of our most popular tours, offering a moving and powerful experience for visitors interested in WWII history. You will be transported by rail from Paris to Normandy, where you will join your knowledgeable guide for a comprehensive tour of the key D-Day landmarks.
After arriving in the region, you'll be taken to Omaha Beach, the site of some of the most intense battles of the D-Day invasion, where you'll see bunkers and craters still dotting the landscape. You'll also visit the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, a peaceful but poignant tribute to the thousands of soldiers who lost their lives fighting for freedom on those beaches. Other highlights of the tour include visits to Utah Beach and Sainte-Mère-Église, both key sites during the D-Day invasion. You'll also visit the Pointe du Hoc and the artificial harbor at Arromanches, both of which played important roles during the historic operation.
