On June 6, 1944, troops stormed the beaches of Normandy, France in order to liberate Europe from the Nazis. Collette is commemorating the 80^th anniversary of D-Day in 2024 by offering a special version of its "Memorials of World War II" tour.

Those who join this tour will travel between London, Normandy and Paris, exploring the destinations’ connections to World War II and immersing themselves in history.

"Collette's 'Memorials of World War II' tour is special," said Jaclyn Leibl-Cote, chief customer experience officer at Collette.

"Throughout 2024, our travelers will have the opportunity to take this journey honoring the 80th anniversary of D-Day, traveling along the same paths as the near 160,000 Allied troops who battled for European freedom on June 6, 1944. The visit to Normandy is always an emotional one. It is such a moving experience to set foot on the same sand as so many heroes did that day."

Highlights of the tour include crossing the English Channel, visiting the Normandy American Cemetery and enjoying a festive dinner cruise along the Seine River. There are several departure dates still available for this special edition tour from March to October 2024, and prices start at $3,499.
