Military History & More...

Reflect on one of World War II’s most poignant moments on this memorable visit to the Normandy beaches, forever entwined in the historic events of June 6, 1944 - the “D-Day” invasion. This trip is a perfect way to pay tribute to our military history and those who have served and made the ultimate sacrifice. Tour departures over Memorial Day & Veteran's Day holiday weekends are very popular - advance reservations are highly recommended.
