On this fully guided tour, you will start your day at the D-Day Story and then enjoy lunch in the Dulverton Room. The D-Day Story is the only UK museum to tell the story of this pivotal moment in
World War II. The museum uses real objects to tell the story of those who took part in the D-Day landings on 6 June 1944. Your next stop will be Portsmouth Cathedral for a private tour including the D-Day window, installed in 1956, as a memorial to Admiral Sir Bertram Ramsay who commanded the seabourne forces at Dunkirk in 1940 and Normandy in 1944.

If you are on foot, you will travel via ferry across the harbour to Gosport to visit the Royal Navy Submarine Museum. If in transport you can drive to the nearest ferry point and park/use ferry. You will experience HMS Alliance and the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, guided onboard this Second World War- era submarine. View Holland 1, the very first Royal Navy submarine launched in 1901 and X24, the only surviving Second World War midget submarine – both regarded as significant maritime artefacts.
