Somme Battlefield Tours and Normandy landing beaches (operates from February to November)

The Somme region, and particularly Villers-Bretonneux, are drenched with Australian history, and are attracting an ever increasing number of Australians. The battlefields are an eternal reminder to honour, the bravery and sacrifice of the many Australians who found their last resting place there.

Out of a population of just four and a half million, 313,000 Australians volunteered to serve during WWI. 65% of these Australians became casualties. The then Australian Imperial Force created history on the 4th July 1918 by capturing the small town of Le Hamel, at the cost of 1,400 Australian casualties. The Somme area has a particular place in its heart for Australians and their role in the allied victory in the "War to end all Wars".

Our tours are guided in English by the undisputed leading expert in the battlefield sites. He mostly guides Australian visitors and he will take you to all the major sights of interest to Australians, which he knows extremely well: the William Leggat Museum, the VB cemetery and memorial, the Hamel memorial, Red Baron's crash site, Albert Museum, Pozieres, Mouquet Farm, AIF Burial Ground in Flers and Bullecourt.

Whilst these tours follow a general itinerary with an overview of the main sites, they will vary as each tour is tailored to meet the specific requirements of the participants on the day. Tour inclusions can vary slightly and can be extended to suit individual requirements.

Travel is in an air conditioned minibus with your personal driver/guide.
