Battlefield Tours 2018/2019

Join us on a unique journey as we travel the whole length of the Western Front, starting on the Belgian coast and reaching the far end on the border with Switzerland.

Raise a glass to our heroes and combine visits to the battlefields from both WW1 and WW2, with visits to some of the best breweries, many of which were effected by the conflicts.

As well as visiting key WW1 battlefield sites including VC Corner and Messines Ridge, this emotive tour also attends the commemorative events on the Centenary of this iconic battle.

Join us on this centenary tour as we commemorate the Last 100 Days of WW1, visiting battlefield sites in France and Belgium such as Ypres, Mons and Loos.

This is the perfect introduction to the First World War battlefields looking at the key battlefield sites of the Great War on the Western Front in Belgium and France.

The war beneath the Western Front in Belgium and France was the Underground War, fought by tunnellers deep beneath the surface where they blew charges to destroy each other or positions on the surface.

Ypres was the most important British battlefield of the First World War with more than 250,000 British and Commonwealth dead falling in defence of Flanders Fields.

A century ago in Flanders, Belgium, the year 1917 was dominated by two great offensives: the Battle of Messines in June 1917 when nineteen mines were detonated under the Messines Ridge, and the Battle of Passchendaele where men fought in terrible battlefield conditions or mud and rain.

75 years ago, men of the 1st Airborne Division dropped and landed near the Dutch town of Arnhem intent on securing the furthest bridge behind enemy lines in Operation Market Garden.

German U-Boats were active from the very beginning of the war but took on a vital role during the Battle of the Atlantic when fleets of them were used to try and destroy Allied shipping: their story has been retold in the classic war film Das Boot.

From the German War of Liberation of 1813, to the Campaign in France 1814 and the Hundred Days’ 1815, our new tour is designed to give an appreciation of some of Napoleon’s victories and defeats in the aftermath of the 1812 retreat, from Moscow to Waterloo.

The Battle of Stalingrad was a major battle of WW2 that saw Nazi Germany and its allies fight the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad, Russia.

Join us on this unique tour as we look at the Pals who fought and fell on the Somme. Travel to Gommecourt, Serre, Thiepval and examine the Somme following the Pals of many of the UK's towns and cities on this informative battlefields tour.

More than a century after some of the first shots of the Great War were fired, join us as we travel through Belgium and France following the Old Contemptibles – the regular army who fought some of the first battles of the war at Mons, Le Cateau and Ypres.

On this new tour we look at some of the key voices to emerge from the war, including Wilfred Owen. Visiting Arras, Flanders, Ypres and the Somme, this unique and fascinating tour will offer a new perspective of World War 1.
