Normandy D-Day Beaches With extension to Mont St. Michel (option) AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE!
If you wish to tribute to these Thousands of Heroes who offered their lives for our freedom, this is the perfect tour. We would aim Caen directly to visit the Caen Memorial. This Museum is regarded as the best WW II Museum in France. Established in 1988, the Caen Memorial focuses on the events leading up to and after D-Day.
Visitors walk through an excellent 5 parts presentation: - the lead-up to World War II - The Battle of Normandy - Two powerful video presentations - The Cold War - And the outgoing movement for peace
From Caen, we will drive to the beaches, British Sector, like Sword Beach, Juno Beach, Gold Beach, to stop in Arromanches. Arromanches, a modest seaside resort, owes its fame to the fantastic “Mulberry” operation which was an integral part of the Allied Landing in Europe in June 1944. This artificial port was one of the most extraordinary maritime achievements of the whole war.
We will continue our journey following the coast to Colleville-sur-Mer, and visit The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial opened in May 2007 to tell the Story of the 9.387 Americans buried there and put The D-Day landings and follow-on battle in Europe in perspective as one of the greatest military achievements of all time. The Cemetery is located on a cliff overhanging Omaha Beach.
Passing small charming villages, we will visit “La Pointe du Hoc“, the famous limestone plateau heavily fortified by the Germans, climbed by the 2nd. Rangers Battalion who took the position by assault at draw on June 6th., but not without heavy losses. The Point is one of the few places in Normandy which still gives the impression of having been a battlefield.
Passing Carentan and Sainte Mère l’Eglise , we will visit Utah Beach, the 5th. Normandy Beachheads ( Landing Museum)

We recently commemorated our Millennium, I wouldn't confirm the date, due to many controversies, but, for sure, Brussels has reports of churches built in the second part of the 10th Century. Most probably, the town really started to grow around a bridge built on The Senne, river crossing Brussels. Don't get confused with The Seine crossing Paris!
