Sainte-Mere-Eglise
On our way towards Sainte Mère Église, we will discuss the events leading up to D-Day. This was the first town to be liberated by the Americans on June 6th, 1944. From the market place, we will talk about the crucial objectives of the airborne forces and you will have some free time to see the historic town center before moving on to Utah Beach.

Utah Beach
Utah was the most successful landing beach of the invasion due to multiple reasons which we’ll discuss on-site. I will tell you more about the famed ideal behind the Atlantic Wall and the Allied preparations to ensure the success of the landings, wave after wave, which would establish the beachheads. We will have some free time before taking a quick lunch break to maximize our time.

Omaha Beach
We’ll then drive along the coast to Omaha Beach and I’ll explain why the morning assault was so costly but how, overall, the landings were a success. It’s impossible to understand the difficulties of Omaha until you have seen the expanse of open beach and the imposing bluffs. Some free time allows you to reflect on these momentous events.

Our last stop will be to honor the fallen at the Normandy American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer. This unforgettable scenery truly pays homage to the 9,387 American servicemen and women who stayed behind in burial. The scenic return route is an ideal opportunity to expand on the Battle of Normandy and the particularities of its famous hedgerow countryside which was such an ordeal for the allied troops. We will have covered a lot during the day – but it is only really a brief insight into the mighty endeavors of the Americans during this historic event.

Pointe du Hoc
After lunch, we head out towards Omaha Sector . . . first stop the Pointe du Hoc. Truly an amazing and unique setting for this overseas American memorial site, with its 100ft high cliffs and the hundreds of bomb and naval shell craters. I will explain the utmost importance of this German long-range coastal artillery site, the Ranger Task Force, its missions on D-Day, and more.

여행자 리뷰
Jon was an amazing tour guide. he shared the historical back-drop to the events on D Day and brought us to numerous sites, bringing it all to life. He assisted us in providing research on a family member laid to rest at the cemetery as we visited.
Jon was an amazing guide! There were 7 of us, 3 of us in our 40s and then two sets of parents in their 70s. He is extremely knowledgeable and adapted to the slower pace of the older generation with us. Jon has such a passion for history and for me (someone who isn't that into it), I found it very intriguing and moving. He is a great story teller. Well worth the cost for a private tour, you won't regret it!
Booked for my parents and they loved loved loved Jon. If you are considering using Jon. Stop looking and book with him. Top tier tour.
Jon is the best in the business. Thank you for a perfect day.
Jon truly made this experience a once in a lifetime one. He has a way of bringing his passion for history to life for you. While standing in the square at St. Mere-Eglise I could picture the C-47's coming from the west at 500-600 feet and at a speed of 100 MPH while paratroopers dropped out of the sky. His command of language and the little details/stories that make this experience come to life, are simply outstanding. He is tireless and loves his job. We saw all the beaches, Point du Hoc and more. Each stop was filled with the history that changed the world. I recommend Jon for all. Simply outstanding.
Jon was very knowledgeable about the events and history of the area. His enthusiasm was very evident.
Once in a lifetime tour with Jon Fletcher! He made this tour so interesting with his unending knowledge and passion for all that is WW2. Jon thought of every detail to highlight each landmark and really bring the history to life. I enjoyed learning interesting stories of soldiers and landmarks that we were not taught in school. It was unbelievable to see where my Grandfather was on D-Day and see what these brave men went through. Thank you Jon for such a memorable and special tour!
Such a once in a lifetime experience with Jon! He planned out all of the tours down to the slightest detail to make it an amazing experience! He is so knowledgeable and passionate on everything WW2. We saw where my Grandfather landed on D-DAY and learned about so many heroic men, especially the ones history never taught us about. A truly unforgettable couple of days! Thanks again, Jon
