Overview

Starting in the pretty little town of Albert we head first to Villers-Bretonneux and spend the morning uncovering the history of the Australian force in the dark days of the 1918 German Spring Offensive. After lunch, we move on to the Battle of the Somme. 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 and the availability of records we are able to research and prepare a bespoke tour to cover an individual soldier or unit.

There are still many lessons to be learned from the Battle of the Somme.

Published on Dec, 2024

We had an interesting and thought provoking tour around the battlefields and memorials near Albert. John was a superb guide. He has a vast knowledge of the area and we really enjoyed his company during the day. The blue skies and clear views made it even better. We learned a lot about the war and highly recommend this tour to anyone with interests in the contributions of the AIF.

This is a confronting but important learning experience for anyone. For an Australian it is especially so…. Alison is warm, well informed, patient and flexible. She knows the facts but also understands the importance and complexity of context and is able to reflect on its impact. Alison researched our young neighbour who died at Pozieres in 1916. That was incredibly important for us and for others in our inner urban Melbourne village. We were able to lay a small posy where his name is recorded. He has no known grave…. Merci beaucoup Alison for a day we will never forget. Highly recommended…
