Itinerario

1. Discover how this very bunker served as the nerve centre for Fighter Command No11 operations group throughout World War II. It’s where the fate of the nation hung in the balance as crucial decisions were made during the tumultuous days of 1940. Thanks to the tireless dedication of RAF plotters and controllers, the Royal Air Force’s fighter pilots held the line against the relentless onslaught of the Luftwaffe. Battle of Britain tours allow you to step back in time and relive this extraordinary historical episode. Descending 60 feet underground through 76 steps, you’ll reach the Operations Room. Here, you’ll encounter the plotting room, with its meticulously preserved large map table, squadron display boards, balloon movements, and weather conditions, exactly as they were when Winston Churchill visited on September 15, 1940.

2. We embark on a journey northward from London. Bletchley Park stands as a place of profound historical significance, serving as the nerve centre for British Codebreakers during WWII. Initially established as a clandestine outpost with the collaboration of MI6 and leading academics from British universities, Bletchley Park sought refuge 50 miles away from the constant threat of bombings in London. In 1941, Prime Minister Winston Churchill issued a resounding directive: “make sure they have all they want extreme priority and report to me as soon as this has been done.” Consequently, Bletchley Park experienced a substantial influx of resources and the initiation of massive building projects to accommodate its expanding workforce. Breaking processes propelled by ground-breaking machines such as the Turing/Welshmen, Bombe, and the pioneering electronic computer, Colossus.

About Londra

Londra unisce cerimoniale reale, musei di fama mondiale e monumenti sul fiume a quartieri ben distinti, mercati e parchi da esplorare a piedi.

Il Tamigi tiene insieme la città. Lungo le sue rive si trovano il Parlamento con il Big Ben, la Torre di Londra con i gioielli della Corona, il Tower Bridge e la lunga passeggiata della South Bank, che passa davanti al London Eye, al Globe di Shakespeare e alla Tate Modern. La cattedrale di St Paul e l'abbazia di Westminster ancorano lo skyline più antico, mentre nel quartiere finanziario si affollano le torri di vetro.

Top-ranked sights in Londra: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
