Based in Albert, this three day battlefield tour will take you back to 1916, visiting some of the most significant sites
that were to influence the battle for the armies of both sides. Our tour starts from the historical town of Albert, a
place in which soldiers of 1916 were billeted just behind the British lines. Most visitors travel around the battlefields
by car or bus; however, on our tours we rarely see other vehicles on the lanes we use to traverse the area. Over three
days we will give you an insight from a different perspective of this famous battlefield, travelling in a small convoy of
5-6 vehicles, on tracks once trod by infantry.
The Hundred Days Offensive was the final period of the First World War, during which the Allies launched a series of
offensives. The Second Battle of the Somme, 1918, was fought over the same ground that had seen such fierce fighting
just two years before. Our tour starts from the historical town of Peronne, an area in which most visitors travel around
the battlefields by car or bus; however, on our tours we rarely see other vehicles on the lanes we use to traverse the
area. Over three days we will give you an insight from a different perspective of this famous battlefield, traveling in a
small convoy of 5-6 vehicles.
Our newest three day tour starts just South of Albert and meanders North to Ypres, stopping off in Arras along the
way. We tell you about The Battle of Arras, which is often overlooked, but at the end of 38 days of fighting in the spring
of 1917, along a front stretching 20 kilometres from Vimy Ridge to the plain of Bullecourt, 300,000 personnel on both
sides were listed as wounded, missing or dead. We then travel on to Ypres with many many sights, cemeteries and
memorials along the way. In the evening we will attend the Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate. This new tour has a
bit of everything!
Over the three full days, we will visit many of the evocative and sometimes emotional sites that stand as a reminder of
the human cost and horror experienced by those young Allied soldiers so many years ago.
You’ll receive CB commentary as we drive along a mixture of tracks and roads, giving you an insight from a different
perspective of this famous battle.
The Battle of Arras is often overlooked, but at the end of 38 days of fighting in the spring of 1917, along a front stretching
20 kilometres from Vimy Ridge to the plain of Bullecourt, 300,000 personnel on both sides were listed as wounded, missing
or dead. The British Army suffered an average of 4,000 wounded and killed every day - the highest average daily casualty
rate of any British offensive on the Western Front. For many, their experiences at Arras were the most brutal of the war.
As part of this tour, we explore the German retreat to the Hindenburg Line as heavily featured in the epic war file ‘1917’
