NormandyTours
Luxury, all-inclusive and economic WWII military history tours led by local experts
















America’s most popularBand of Brothers Tour®
Band of Brothers Tour® is based on the personal experiences of the locals in Normandy about the liberation by American and Allied soldiers in World War II. Band of Brothers Tours is a product, a trademark and a website domain belonging to Beaches of Normandy Tours SAS. Over the years, our trips have become America’s favorite military history tours for several reasons. Firstly, we are a local company which has an organic and longstanding relationship with local authorities, museums, guides, hotels, restaurants, reenactors and other service providers. Secondly, our General Manager, Severine Diaz, has many years of experience in remembrance tourism and administration since she served as the General Manager of the Utah Beach Museum. Both her grandfathers were prisoners of war during World War II which inspired her to study the history of D-Day and the liberation of France. Currently, the seat of the company is in Sainte-Marie-du-Mont, the village which was among the first settlements liberated by the Allies, in particular the paratroopers of the 101st “Screaming Eagles” Airborne Division, also known as Band of Brothers. Thirdly, our Band of Brothers Tours come in several versions depending on your time and funds available giving great flexibility to our Passengers. We offer three differently priced tours, such as economic, all-inclusive or luxury tours that come in different lengths providing you even more options to choose the ideal one. The ultimate option is to attend the actual annual D-Day anniversary ceremonies while walking in the footsteps of paratroopers of the 101st Airborne Division.
"From this day to the ending of the world, but we in it shall be remembered; we few, we happy few, we band of brothers; for he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother" (William Shakespeare: Henry V)
Although these words have made Easy Company famous through the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers, one should never forget that WWII was not won by a single company but by millions of dedicated men. In both World War I and II, as well as in the American Civil War, brothers in arms fought side by side and made history: history that connects centuries, history that connects people and history that sometimes repeats itself. Beaches of Normandy Tours takes those who understand and appreciate the heroic sacrifice of the everyday American serviceman on an unforgettable journey through time from Europe to Vietnam on a variety of military history tours under the copyright of its registered and internationally protected trademarks: Band of Brothers Tours® and Beaches of Normandy Tours®.

Our first-class historical tours take you on a journey through iconic World War II sites around Europe, as well as the most emblematic moments of American heroism of the time. From the Normandy beaches to Bastogne and the Bavarian Alps we guide you through the significant events and experiences of the war that changed the world. Band of Brothers Tour is a registered brand and protected trademark in the European Union by Beaches of Normandy Tours.
The first days of the tour dive into all five landing beaches, with a special focus on the American landing sectors. We then head east through the Ardennes to Belgium, where passengers can crouch in the foxholes of Bois Jacques and learn about the vehicles that defined the Allied war effort during the Battle of the Bulge and the Siege of Bastogne. Our journey ends in Germany, where we learn about the context of the Nazi regime, a sobering visit to the very first concentration camp of Dachau and we top off the tour with a day trip to the Bavarian Alps, where we visit the famous Eagle's Nest on top of the Kehlstein mountain.
