Højdepunkter

After meeting your guide you 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 time. If you have any special sites, such as areas that involved your relatives, please ask as we are keen to adapt the tour specifically for you. 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.

About Amiens

Amiens, on the Somme in northern France, is a cathedral city with floating gardens on its waterways and the house where Jules Verne lived and wrote.

The Gothic cathedral of Notre-Dame, begun in 1220 and a World Heritage site, is the largest in France by interior volume, with a west front of sculpted saints and a vast nave. The Saint-Leu quarter beside the Somme, a district of low brick houses, cafés and footbridges, has the river splitting into channels.

Top-ranked sights in Amiens: Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial, Somme 1916 Museum (Musée Somme 1916).
