Day 3 - London Uncover London’s myriad connections to WWII on an expert-guided walk. In Westminster, see iconic London sights including Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, 10 Downing Street, and Parliament. Then, go underground to the place history was made: the Churchill War Rooms. Navigate a labyrinth of corridors hidden under the streets of Westminster that sheltered Winston Churchill and his war cabinet from the bombing raids while they planned for victory. This afternoon you will enjoy a Special Included Please Go Away™ Vacations “FEATURE” BONUS: EXPERIENCING WINDSOR CASTLE. Step into the formal world of the British Monarchy when you visit the stately and expansive Windsor Castle. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II uses Windsor as both a private home and as a Royal residence where formal duties of state are performed. Windsor’s 1,000 rooms comprise the largest inhabited castle in the world. It dates back to the 1070s, when William the Conqueror built the original wooden structure, now replaced by the grand stone edifices. Explore one of Britain’s most visited historic buildings, its precincts, and the State Apartments, which house a delightful collection of Royal art treasures. Enjoy time for lunch in the quaint town of Windsor before heading back to London. Windsor Castle was also used as a secret refuge for the royal family during WW II.

COME AND “GO AWAY” WITH

US! This is going to be an unforgettable journey of discovery as many remembrances await us on this sojourn to both

England and Northern France on the 76th Anniversary of D-Day. In Westminster, we will discover London’s connections to the war at Churchill’s underground War Rooms. It is from these underground rooms, tiny in size, that England joined the other allies to combat Germany. While experiencing these rooms, we will want to particularly observe the secure telephone booth disguised as a bathroom, or loo as they would say in England, from which Churchill spoke to President Roosevelt via trans-Atlantic cable. Then, we’ll travel to Paris via the high-speed Eurostar Train, and drive through the French countryside en route to Caen Canal and Pegasus Bridge, captured by the heroic British 6th Airborne Division. We will immerse ourselves in the history of Normandy’s D-Day Landing Beaches and visit the Normandy American Cemetery. Together, we will pay our respect to the fallen men of the Commonwealth land forces with no known graves at Bayeux Memorial, and visit the Museum of Surrender in Reims, where the Germans gave their unconditional surrender to end the war in Europe.

Then, we’ll finish in Paris for the incomparable experience of dining inside the Eiffel Tower.

EXPERIENCE IT! NORMANDY & MUCH MORE!

June 6, 1944: the day thousands of allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy. Otherwise known as D-Day, it is the day that marked the beginning of the end of the Second World War - and the day soldiers from the United States, United Kingdom, France, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and beyond sacrificed their lives on the shores of Normandy’s landing beaches. Embark on a reflective journey through the myriad reminders of this watershed event in world history. Discover the memorials, museums, and landmarks that stand in dedication to the heroic soldiers. Visit all the beaches - Omaha, Juno, Sword, and Utah Beach, and pay respect to the more than 9,000 lives honored at the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial, the largest American cemetery in the region. Unlike programs of other companies that allow a total of only a few hours (actually part of a single day at the beaches), this specially-crafted Please Go Away™ Vacations’ “FEATURE” TRAVEL experience spends multiple days experiencing the beaches, and also spends additional days experiencing many additional World War II Memorials and sites of importance. Always compare. When you do, you will find you receive more in depth experiences coupled with more value and quality when you “go away” with Please Go Away™ Vacations.
