Our guides have deep specialist knowledge across every sector of the Normandy campaign and can design a tour that follows your chosen unit from its D-Day landing to the liberation of Paris and beyond. Whether it's the story of the Duke of Cornwall Battalion at Hill 112, the 90th Infantry Division at Mont Castre, or the Polish Armoured Division at the Falaise Pocket. Multi-day programmes are available for units whose campaigns extended across multiple theatres.
