  • Visit bunkers, gun emplacements, and Allied landing zones

  • Vintage goggles, gloves, helmets and rain gear included

What to expect

You'll board a vintage sidecar rig with one passenger riding pillion behind the driver and one seated in the attached sidecar. The route takes you to major D-Day sites across the beaches, stopping at preserved bunkers, gun positions, and memorials. Your driver provides context and stories as you move between locations. The open-air experience means you're exposed to wind and sea spray, hence the rain gear. The full loop covers roughly 3.5 hours including stops; cemetery access depends on daylight hours and seasonal closures.

Good to know

Minimum age four years; not suitable for pregnant travellers. Service animals welcome. Lunch is not included. Sidecars seat two maximum—book accordingly if your group exceeds four. Check cemetery opening times beforehand, as afternoon visits may not be possible. Public transport is nearby if needed.
