Discover the secrets of Omaha Beach with our WWII expert. Rodolphe Rutman, who will accompany you, brings to life personal stories from Omaha Beach, using his knowledge of the subject acquired over more than 30 years of private research. He has been connected to the events of June 6 1944, since he was involved in the 50th anniversary of D-Day, in 1994. That year, he assisted a group of 41 American veteran paratroopers who came to perform a commemorative jump near Sainte-mère-église. Afterwards, Rodolphe became a filmmaker specialising in history. He has directed 4 TV documentary films about D-Day, which were broadcast internationally. This enabled him to interview more than 200 people who witnessed the events of summer 1944, including 13 American veterans who landed on Omaha Beach. Today, he lives in Normandy and likes to share his passion for this subject by leading visits to memorial sites. So be ready for an immersive and unforgettable exploration of the 1944 Battle of Normandy.

Great trip with Herve

We are so glad we had a private guide, Herve, who was an encyclopedia of knowledge. It’s a long day but extremely interesting and informative. If possible, get to the beaches at low tide so that you can see the wide beach that the soldiers and equipment had to cross. At high tide there is no sand visible

Informative and emotional

Our guide, Thierry, was very knowledgeable. He added a lot to the tour with his detailed stories about some of the men who fought in these battles, and the tactics and strategies of the combatants and their commanders. He used pictures and maps of the action in his presentation. Wear comfortable walking shoes and be ready for a few close quarters and steps in the bunkers. Also be ready to stand as your tour guide details what happened in these areas in 1944. Come with your questions. Our guide time the ending to be at the EOD taps and flag lowering.

Amazing and Fun Experience of Normandy!

This tour was INCREDIBLE! We took the train from Paris to Bayeux in the morning. It was myself, my wife, 17 year old son, and 7 year old daughter. Remi and John were our guides. We had so much much and learned so much about both the British and American invasions! We had a fabulous lunch (not included but recommended) at a small French Diner. We visited Gold Beach, Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery and la Pointe du Hoc, where we could see Utah Beach and even had a military plane fly right over us! Afterwards we had time for souvenirs then back to the train station! It was a long day but so AMAZING! Definitely recommended!!!!

Omaha Beach D-Day Experience - Afternoon group tour from Bayeux

Kristopher_M, Oct 2025

An Authentic and Inspiring Experience

This is a wonderful half day tour of Omaha Beach, the Normandy American Cemetery, and Point du Hoc. Our guide, Charlie, was very passionate about the war in his words, in his careful and deliberate depictions and sketches of what the Allied soldiers experienced on D day. I felt totally immersed and in the guide of an expert who truly made the experience worthwhile. You will have an opportunity to see the intimidating cliffs the US rangers had to scale to storm the German gun batteries and awe in just how difficult that feat would have been. You will see the American cemetery where the thousands of lives were given over the course of the war to fight tyranny. If you time it right, you will get to see the taps ceremony at 1600 which undoubtedly evokes a sense of admiration and sadness. Finally, seeing the same beach the thousands of Allied soldiers stormed under terrible weather conditions and sheer bad luck really gives you a perspective on what sacrifice truly means. I highly recommend the tour.

Myriam_C, Jun 2025

Great tour and guide!

We enjoyed our tour very much. The smaller group tours allow everyone the opportunity to ask questions and relay what the observe to the whole group. The guide was well versed in the history of the different sites and added details and tidbits of information that he knew would interest the different people in the tour.
