You pull up to a wind-scoured cliff and the Channel spreads open below—grey water, low tide sand, and the flat sweep of Gold Beach where tanks once ran ashore. The driver-guide opens the door; the air smells of salt and the faint metallic echo of history. This private, full-day tour threads between bunkers, memorials, and the engineered remains of Mulberry B at Arromanches, placing you where British units fought, bridged, and held ground on 6 June 1944.
