Independent Normandy tours Cherborg

[Laine*]

We would love to join a tour of Omaha beach, Utah beach, the American cemetery, and Saint MerEglise. Does anyone have extra room for two to join on October 30?

Suggest you post on the roll call for your cruise.  Overlord is a good tour company for Normandy WWII tours

We have done the tour and really enjoyed it.  However...we did it as a ship excursion...not private.  Normandy is a long ways from the port and no matter how many "guarantees" a private company gives you the ship still will not wait for you if you get back from a private tour late.  Before anybody jumps in and criticizes me for "wasting" money and sharing the fact that it is very likely run by the very same tour company, I have very often done private tours...just those that don't stray very far from the ship/port.  Some people thrive on "adventure"...I prefer a bit more security! 😄

I just booked the Regal  British Isles cruise in May and the ship's tour from LeHave to the Normandy Beaches is already sold out and there is no wait list, sigh. 

 

I had read about an independent tour operator Overlord Tours on our roll call and also on a cruise  cruise member review , so I plan to book a the 9B tour.

I am booked on a cruise that goes to Cherbourg and the Normandy tours were also full when I booked also.

 

There are several independent tours going on our roll call also.

 

I believe this is the OP roll call. You may want to post here if anyone has availability.

 

This is the company that I am using with some individuals from my roll call:

In 2018 we used Spearhead Tours.  I do not know if they are still in business, but we did everything that Overlord Tours did.  The notebooks the guides used were the same.  I think our guide had trained with Overlord Tours.  I would recommend them.  Very enjoyable day, and we did not worry about missing the ship.

Beaches of Normandy Spearhead Tours

 

Our tour left at 8 am.  There was a mini-van with 3 couples.  We had enough room.

 

We visited the American Cemetery, Omaha Beach, Utah Beach, and a couple of churches.  We had lunch at a café Le Roosevelt at Utah Beach.  Our guide and driver Florin had good commentary and stories.  He had a book with pictures of events.

 

We were not able to visit the museums and no shopping time.  There was a long ride back to the ship, arriving about 5 pm.
