Visit Normandy with the WW2 Museum Travel: Soldiers and Spies

Take a once-in-a-lifetime trip with Author Alex Kershaw, author of Avenue of Spies and The Bedford Boys, for a truly immersive experience that takes you back in time to many of the extraordinary places featured in his books, from the bloodiest sands in American history where the Bedford Boys landed, to the grand avenues of the “City of Lights.”

On this exclusive seven-day tour of France, guests get an up-close view of the beaches of Normandy, while hearing stories of sacrifice about the “Bedford Boys” who came ashore with Company A, 116th Regiment, 29th Infantry Division during the first wave at Omaha Beach on D-Day. Tour members also roam the breathtaking streets of Paris with Kershaw, who provides depth
and context to the espionage that occurred there more than 75 years ago. Avenue Foch, one of the most upscale and elite streets in Paris, was home to Avenue of Spies protagonist Dr. Sumner Jackson and his family. Their address at Number 11 was both a meeting place for the French Resistance and a drop site for crucial information. High-ranking Nazis took up residence nearby, putting the Jacksons in constant danger. Kershaw’s stories will bring to life the Jackson family’s courage at a time when “never had so many psychopaths and sadists been based on one street in Paris.”
