Stay active and on your feet after you arrive in Paris. If you go to bed at a reasonable hour (Paris time), you should wake up fairly well rested and with your body clock adjusted.

The 07:07 train from Paris arrives in Carentan at 09:29. That's rather late. Are you taking a private tour so the starting time is flexible?

Battle Bus Tours meet around 8 am in Bayeaux. We arrived in Bayeaux one day did the all day tour the next day and left the following day.

I wish you luck.

What time will you arrive in Paris? Which tour company? Is it a package tour that includes transportation from Paris or do you need to get to Normandy on your own? All day or half day? If half day, morning or afternoon?

I leave NYC on July 11 , Arrive July 12 in the a.m...The next day I train to Carentan on a 7am out of Paris. I booked Ellwood Von Seibold with d day battle tours..This was the only date he had available the the entire week. I guess my daughter and I will be some tired pups..

You should be fine, probably a bit tired. You'll love Ellwood!
