Top Rouen Sightseeing Tours - page 2

This is the only private shore excursion from Rouen dedicated entirely to the Canadian story of D-Day — a bucket list experience for Canadian travelers and anyone who wants to understand the full Allied landings of June 6, 1944.At Juno Beach, Canadian assault troops stormed ashore against fierce German defenses. The Juno Beach Centre tells the story of the 45,000 Canadians who lost their lives through photos, archives and first-hand accounts. Beny-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery and Bernières-sur-Mer complete a day that honors a chapter of history most tours never cover.Your private vehicle travels exclusively for your group, with pickup from Rouen and your return to ship fully guaranteed.

Enjoy a full day tour of the DDay Landings with a thorough visit of Omaha Beach and the American Cemetery, as well as Pointe du Hoc. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn about the 1944 Normandy battlefields. Your experienced driver-guide will provide maps and all relevant information of what happened there. A guided tour of the D-Day beaches in Normandy becomes something far more powerful than just visiting historic sites when it’s led by a local expert guide. What makes it truly unique is the human depth they bring to the landscape. Note that we have a 2-hour drive to come from Rouen as well as the same return drive so there's a limited amount of sites that we can do, but it will be conducted in a way that will give you the full scale of the D-Day invasion. We pick you up in Rouen at your hotel, private address, or at your Viking cruise ship.
