(Click on images to your left or the tour name link to see the detail and access booking forms). Each tour offers a unique experience, take the package, and you will have experienced the sites where Australians fought in Europe, Africa and East Asia during both World Wars. Travel with us and our Military Historians to those battlefields where the Australian and New Zealand forces have fought with great courage, tenacity and initiative. Military History Tours are battlefield orientated, in that we examine military campaigns and ensuing battles, with expert discussion from our historians, we also experience the environment and culture of the areas we visit by contact with local guides and historians to discuss the way of life in those bygone years.
A leap of the imagination is required when visiting the battlefields. They are now so tranquil and the very thought of war is unbelievable. Your imagination has to supply the ruin and devastation, the shell holes, trenches, smoke, flame and noise, the cold and heat, the fear and pain. While viewing the war cemeteries is very much a personal moving experience, much of the adventure of the tour will be experienced as a group. We use our first night together as a briefing forum for what is to follow. Prior to departure, each traveller will receive a newsletter covering general areas of interest including travelling overseas, the itinerary, flight details and what to expect. Tours are escorted by Military Historians familiar with each of the Battles. |
