Battlefields of The Somme and Belgium

We specialise in unique small group tours of the WW1 Battlefields of the Somme & Belgium. These 6 & 7-night tours can be run with a minimum of 8 people for special-interest groups, clubs or family groups, on dates to suit your group. Our outstanding tour manager is a leading historian in this area and its history.

 

We also have a scheduled departure in 2012 on 16th September – see the detailed itinerary.

 

Visiting the WW1 battlefields is a moving experience, a tour that is best conducted in a personalised small group. This makes us flexible enough to visit fascinating places off the beaten track, yet see more in a day at a more leisurely pace and in greater depth.

We discover the Somme, Ypres & Passchendaele, with memorials & battlefield sites highlighted along with charming villages, museums and beautiful countryside, to give you an insight into the extraordinary history of the Australian forces in France.

We visit a wide variety of different sites and activities, to maximize your understanding and interest. Your tour manager will conduct walks to actual battle sites, provide maps and histories of the major battles and give pictorial information on the history of WW1.

 

We encourage you to research your own family history – an easy and quick task – so that you can find your relative’s grave or name at one of the memorials we visit. This has always been a very moving experience for our clients and makes the journey a very powerful historic pilgrimage.
