On this full-day tour from Le Havre, you'll walk in the footsteps of the 156,000 GIs who liberated France and Europe.
With me, you'll gain the unique perspective of the grandson of Resistance fighters, who told me "almost" everything they went through during those awful four years - things I didn't find in history books, even the best ones.
In Arromanches, you'll immerse yourself in the terrible first days of combat.
In Longues sur Mer, you'll grasp what the Atlantic Wall really was.
In Ste Mère Eglise, I'll explain in detail how the Americans were able to capture the Cherbourg Peninsula so quickly and why it was so important for the Battle of Normandy and for Europe.
On Omaha Beach, you'll walk on holy ground as I explain the initial assault in detail.
And, of course, at the Normandy American Cemetery, I will share with you the stories of many of the 9,388 young men who fell here for liberty.
At the end of the day, you may well say: "Too bad we did not book more than one day to visit Normandy."
