Have done several cruises that have passed through this area, stopping in Le Havre and Cherbourg (and 1 river cruise) and each time done tours of the beaches, towns and cemeteries connected with D-Day. I have never grown tired of seeing these hallowed grounds and would book another cruise or land tour without hesitation to go again. We've done ship's tours and private tours and each time learned something new. I favor the private tours as they are typically smaller and can get to more places quicker than the bigger buses. The guides are professional, know their history, know the small places for food and interesting side notes. I have always marveled at the way the people there have preserved and cared for the memories and places that are so meaningful to so many.
