Discover Normandy - Where History Changed the World
The most meaningful way to experience the D-Day beaches from Paris
On June 6, 1944, the largest seaborne invasion in history changed the course of World War II forever. Today, the beaches of Normandy remain one of the most powerful and deeply moving destinations in the world - a place where history is not just remembered, but felt. With Marcel Tours, your private Mercedes departs directly from your Paris hotel. No trains, no crowded coaches, no fixed itinerary. Just your group, your English-speaking driver, and the freedom to spend as long as you need at each site. Walk Omaha Beach where thousands of American soldiers landed under fire. Stand among the 9,387 white marble crosses of the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer. Touch the concrete remains of the Mulberry harbour at Arromanches. These are not just landmarks - they are sacred ground. Beyond the iconic sites, additional stops can be arranged on request - Pointe du Hoc, Utah Beach, the Canadian Cemetery at Bény-sur-Mer, or the Airborne Museum at Sainte-Mère-Église. Tell us what matters to your group, and we build the day around you. Marcel Tours is rated 4.9/5 on TripAdvisor. Our drivers are professional, discreet, and deeply respectful of the solemnity of these sites.
