D-Day Normandy Cycle Tour – 4 Days | 449 km | 3,000 m Climbing
🇫🇷 St Malo to Caen | Ferry In & Out from Portsmouth | Early June
Since 2008, we’ve been crafting unforgettable cycling journeys through the most scenic and historic parts of France – and this coastal D-Day tour is one of our most inspiring.
Starting in St Malo, after your overnight ferry crossing from Portsmouth, we set off along a breathtaking route that hugs the Normandy coastline all the way to Caen. Over four carefully curated days, you’ll cover 449 km with around 3,000 metres of elevation, tracing the dramatic landscapes of the Allied landings and passing through places etched into World War II history – Pegasus Bridge, Sword Beach, Juno, Gold and Omaha, to name just a few.
We’ve designed the ride to balance challenge and enjoyment, with 2-3 star hotels in charming French towns, hearty breakfasts, and fresh picnic lunches provided en route so you can fully focus on the ride.
Full mechanical support, a dedicated route guide, and detailed GPX files ensure everything runs smoothly, whether you bring your own bike or opt for our optional road bike hire.
You’ll ride in good company, share stories over evening meals, and return via the ferry from Caen to Portsmouth with memories of an unforgettable cycling adventure.
