About this experience

For an unforgettable 2-hour private group experience (only), board a real World War II Jeep, used by the American GIs in 1944. The Jeep will allow us to go off the beaten track and discover the landing in Normandy through many anecdotes and places, sometimes forgotten. Our vehicles are completely restored to offer comfort and safety. Between small villages typical of Normandy, bocage and beaches, it is a real immersion in the History of Normandy that is offered through this unique experience. Our guides are from Normandy, they will tell you the little stories of the region, and answer all your questions.
