Overview

Starting in the beautiful towns of Arras or Albert we head to the notorious battlefield of the 1916 Somme offensive. From trenches to memorials we will guide you through the planning and execution of this infamous campaign. We only operate private tours, this will be your tour and adapted as necessary to meet your needs during the day. With our years of living and working on these iconic sites we aim to ensure you leave with memories of the sacrifice of a generation. Given suitable notice time we are able to research and prepare a bespoke tour to cover an individual soldier or unit.

A great experience!

Published on Jan, 2025

I booked this tour for my husband as a birthday gift. We met John at Arras station and he took us around the Somme battlefield and showed us all memorial sights. My husband absolutely loved it and it was a dream of his to see the trenches from the Somme. John was so polite and had so much knowledge! This is such a great experience, I would recommend it to anyone! Thankyou both

Excellent History Tour of The Somme

Published on Nov, 2024

Alison was so knowledgeable and warm, and did an excellent job telling the human side of stories of the Great War. A really personalised experience, I would highly recommend getting in touch earlier if you have a relative who fought at the Somme, as the tour can really be researched and personalised to give context to what they may have experienced over 100 years ago. The tour lasted about 9hrs from pickup to dropoff, full of excellent facts, history, and so much information (need to do more reading!). Nothing on our tour felt rushed or 'okay there's 10 minutes here then we go there' - it felt like we could take the time we wanted to take to see, listen, and learn. Pack warm clothes for Winter tours - even in early November it made you feel for the soldiers, with bracing winds and low temperatures (8° or 9°C)! A wonderful experience and can't recommend enough.
