    What you'll see and do

    1. Pointe du Hoc

      The World War II Pointe du Hoc Ranger Monument is located on a cliff eight miles west of Normandy American Cemetery, which overlooks Omaha Beach, France. It was erected by the French to honor elements of the American Second Ranger Battalion under the command of Lt. Col. James E. Rudder. During the American assault of Omaha and Utah beaches on June 6, 1944, these U.S. Army Rangers scaled the 100-foot cliffs and seized the German artillery pieces that could have fired on the American landing troops at Omaha and Utah beaches. At a high cost of life, they successfully defended against determined German counterattacks.

    2. Omaha Beach

      The beaches of Omaha were a real trap for the troops of the 1st and 29th Infantry Divisions. We will have one or two stops on Omaha Beach, and understand the landings of the American troops on June 6th, 1944. Depending on the circumstances, the stop may be in Vierville S/Mer, St Laurent S/Mer, or Colleville S/Mer. One or two stops at Omaha Beach. Please indicate in a message if you have a preference.

      60 minutes here

    3. Cimetiere Americain de Colleville-sur-Mer

      The cemetery site, at the north end of its half mile access road, covers 172.5 acres and contains the graves of more than 9,380 of our military dead, most of whom lost their lives in the D-Day landings and ensuing operations. On the Walls of the Missing, in a semicircular garden on the east side of the memorial, are inscribed 1,557 names.

    1/2 Day Point du Hoc D-Day Excursion

    Our time with Anthony was nothing short of amazing. The logistics were well handled making the pickup, drop off and traveling in between flow seamlessly. The real highlight was Anthony and his amiable nature, rooted in American and French culture, and deep interest and knowledge of history, in this case of events around and during D-Day. He allowed us time to take in the surroundings and gravity of the locations, but provided detailed insights and overviews to grow our understanding of all of WWII and D-day. For those of us who entered with a decent understanding of WWII, he was able to answer all of our questions easily and with enthusiasm that would lead to deeper insights and motivate further discussion. The part of our group who were less familiar walked away with an awareness of how much encompassed those days and WWII, but also were able to take away key overviews and as such were not overwhelmed with a flood of facts. In addition to all the knowledge of D-Day that Anthony had, he also was a fountain of information on the history and culture of the local area and France as a whole.

    Great storytelling, great tour!!!

    My wife and I learned so much not only about the events related to D-Day but also about life in Normandy and France in general. Yves is an engaging storyteller and guide. His use of a large iPad displaying maps and old photos was very helpful in explaining the strategies, motivations, and unpredictable turn of events which changed history. Thank you, Yves! You were awesome!!

    Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bayeux.

    How much does Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1007 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bayeux usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bayeux is not rushed.

    Is Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Bayeux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bayeux can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bayeux and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Half Day Omaha Beach & Pointe du Hoc DDay Tour from Bayeux start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bayeux within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Bayeux?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bayeux experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Omaha and Utah beaches, Normandy American D-Day Experience - Group tour from Bayeux, Omaha Full Day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Bayeux?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Bayeux?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
