Ablauf
After driving for 2 hours through the Normandy countryside, your first stop will be at Pointe du Hoc, where you can see the numerous bomb craters that have remained untouched since the war. Climb through the various bunkers to witness how the Germans used the cliffs to their advantage, and imagine how the Americans attacked and captured the battery after scaling the cliffs.
Afterward, head to Omaha Beach and pass along 8 km of coastline facing the English Channel. Ashore, you will find a sculpture called Les Braves, meaning "The Braves" in honor of the soldiers who fought in the war. There will be an opportunity to stop for a quick lunch near Omaha Beach.
Next, continue the tour to the Normandy American Cemetery to pay tribute to the fighters of the battle. The visitor center offers a detailed exhibition about the war. This will be our last stop before heading back for a 2-hour drive to the port or your hotel.

About Rouen
Rouen is the historic capital of Normandy on the Seine, a city of half-timbered streets, a great Gothic cathedral and the memory of Joan of Arc.
Rouen stands on a bend of the Seine, and its streets hold many half-timbered houses leaning over cobbled lanes. The Gothic cathedral, with its lacy west front, was painted by Claude Monet in a long series of canvases, each in a different light. The Gros-Horloge, a Renaissance arch carrying a big astronomical clock, spans the main street.
Top-ranked sights in Rouen: Joan of Arc Historial (Historial Jeanne d’Arc), Rouen Museum of Fine Arts (Musée des Beaux-Arts).
