If you are interested in WWII, sail through history with us! D-Day Anniversary River Cruise 2027!
For the first time, river cruisers and history lovers have a dedicated sailing opportunity designed to uncover the full story of D-Day and Operation Overlord in extraordinary depth – one the very ground where history unfolded and in the very company of an expert Historian who brings it all to life.
Travelers are offered everything a river cruise delivers – plus an exclusive, richly layered history experience that makes the journey even more compelling.
Join our group as we sail through history. The trip of a lifetime is an 8-Day Paris to Normandy cruise along the Seine through France, departing June 3-10, 2027.
We will explore artist villages and castles along the river while also spending two days exploring the D-Day beaches in Normandy. Of course, this trip becomes more meaningful since it occurs over the very anniversary of the landings. Moreover, we’ll be fully escorted by a historian who will guide us and explain all the details from the first boots to hit the beaches to the climb up to the German artillery positions of Pointe Du Hoc and beyond.
In addition to getting to explore the beaches over the anniversary of D-Day, we’ll also be able to learn more details about the dramatic event through exclusive history seminars on board the ship!
This enriched history overlay sees travelers sail as part of a dedicated custom group aboard the vessel with access to the expert who can answer questions with amazing details at every turn.
