Featuring an exclusive lecture series by the Museum’s special guests, this all-new tour brings together the very best of The National WWII Museum’s flagship Normandy program with a whole new level of luxury—including world-class château accommodations and a five-star river cruise aboard the brand new, exclusively chartered Joie de Vivre.
The National WWII Museum’s most popular tour provides an in-depth itinerary exploring America’s most famous WWII battle.
Based on the best-selling book by Museum founder Stephen E. Ambrose, and the award-winning HBO miniseries Band of Brothers.
The National WWII Museum’s private Center for Collections & Archives is excited to present rarely seen artifacts from our vault, not available for public viewing, which give voice to the American experience in World War II.
