4. American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer: The final stop on Day 1 is the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer. This solemn and beautifully maintained site is the resting place of nearly 10,000 American soldiers who lost their lives during the Normandy invasion. The cemetery overlooks Omaha Beach and includes a visitor center with exhibitions about the landings.

You’ll learn the story of John Steele, a paratrooper whose parachute got caught on the church tower during the invasion, and visit the Airborne Museum, which covers the role of the paratroopers during the battle.

2. Utah Beach: After Sainte-Mère-Église, you’ll visit Utah Beach, another key landing site for American forces on D-Day. Here, you’ll walk the beach, learn about the tactical significance of this site, and see various memorials commemorating the soldiers who landed here.
