Location
Nuneaton District Scouts are organising an international experience for Scouts and Explorers to Normandy, France, running from May 28th to June 3rd, 2023. The trip will be over 7 days / 6 nights.
Operation Overlord was the codename for the Battle of Normandy, the Allied operation that launched the successful invasion of German-occupied Western Europe during World War II. The operation was launched on 6 June 1944 with the Normandy landings.
A haven of rugged coastlines, maritime towns and historic treasures, a trip to Normandy encapsulates everything that is special about rural France. Known for its history, the region’s long sweep of beaches and pastoral villages make it even more endearing. Get to grips with the local lingo amongst the lively shops and enjoy a taste of life ‘à la française’. You will be able to pick up some new vocabulary at a traditional market, then soak up Normandy’s D-Day history and walk in the footsteps of heroes.
And if that was not enough, we will have a full day in Disney Land Paris.
The Cost is confirmed at £615, with a non-returnable deposit of £150 to hold your place.
We will then invite members to a briefing where we will then outline the trip in full.
