    The best of the Normandy American cemetary and Omaha Beach

    Valerie was absolutely fabulous! So knowledgeable about the history and the many back-stories of the fallen.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience. Sharing the history and the personal stories behind those who fell is something we are truly passionate about, and we're glad it helped make the visit meaningful and memorable. We greatly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again in the future. Joe www.tour-france-experience.com

    Ripped off

    When we arrived, we could not find our driver, so I had to call her. Because of D-Day, there were all kinds of ceremonies which we were not informed about, and the visitor center was closed. They cancelled our transport so we could not get to Omaha Beach or the memorial because it was closed. We were supposed to get food and drinks which we never got, and our tour guide didn't know anything about it. We couldn't get transportation back, and we should have been warned about that. We paid $702.00 for less than 2 hours. Our tour guide was very nice, but her English wasn't the best for an English speaking guide.I requested a partisl refund.0

    Response from the operator: Dear Customer, After reading your comment, I was initially surprised by what you described. However, after reviewing the situation, I now understand the confusion you experienced. After checking the Viator website, I can see that the presentation may indeed be misleading. Viator displays both the inclusions and exclusions within the same section: items included in the tour are marked with a check mark, while excluded items are marked with a cross. Unfortunately, it appears that this may have led to a misunderstanding. To clarify, transportation, food, and drinks are not included in this tour. We are sorry for the inconvenience and disappointment this may have caused. However, the issue seems to stem from the way the information is displayed on the Viator platform rather than from a service that we failed to provide. The services you mentioned are not part of the product we offer. For this reason, we are unable to grant the refund you requested. We would also like to note that you asked for the tour to be completed within two hours so that you could catch your train afterward. In addition, your guide, Odile, informed us that she kindly used her personal vehicle to take you to a place where you could have something to eat, even though transportation was not included in the tour. We hope this explanation clarifies the situation. We also encourage all customers to carefully review the product details and inclusions before making a purchase online. Kind regards, Joe

    Two thumbs up!

    Our guide, Erwan, was waiting for us when we arrived ten minutes early. And what an information packed, interesting, and very knowledgeable guide he was. Having a great guide is very helpful when you are witnessing such a broad sweep of history. Two thumbs up for the museum, cemetery, and the walk down to the beach.

    Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $342 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 Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 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 Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bayeux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 1 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour 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.

    What is included in Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour?

    +

    Included: Services of an expert guide during a private guided walking tour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour?

    +

    Meet your guide in front of the "Visitors Center". Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Omaha Beach and Colleville Cemetery Private Walking Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
