Continue to Omaha Beach and the Normandy American Cemetery, where you can visit the visitor center’s permanent exhibition and watch a film about American forces in World War II. A private, climate-controlled vehicle makes the long drive from Paris more comfortable, with restroom and stretch breaks along the way. The day includes up to 2 miles of leisurely walking.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.24 from 17 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.3.
