Battlefield Tours by Coach
Stand where history happened. We’ll get you there.
National Holidays runs great-value battlefield tours by coach, with ferry crossings included and expert guides on our dedicated tours, so you can focus on the history rather than the logistics.
Some places have to be seen to be understood. Standing on the Somme, walking through Flanders or hearing the Last Post at the Menin Gate brings home the scale of what happened in a way no book ever could. Our battlefield tours take you there with the care and respect the subject deserves.
At National Holidays, we handle the coach, the ferry crossings and the route. On our dedicated battlefield tours, an expert guide travels with you throughout, bringing the history to life at every stop. You just bring your respects and your curiosity.
WW1 and WW2 Battlefield Tours with National Holidays
Our battlefield tours focus on the Western Front, where so much of the First World War unfolded. You'll visit the great sites of remembrance, from Vimy Ridge and the Somme to Ypres and Passchendaele, with moving moments like the daily Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate. On our dedicated battlefield tours, an expert battlefield guide accompanies you throughout, sharing the stories of courage and sacrifice behind the names on the memorials.
Every tour includes comfortable coach travel and ferry crossings, hotel accommodation with breakfast and the services of a tour manager. For other military experiences, including the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, take a look at our wider military coach trips. You'll see exactly what's included on each tour before you book.
