Battlefield Tours – Tailor-made, Personalized, Group and Coach Tours to the WW1 & WW2 Battlefields
BATTLEFIELD TOURS with In the footsteps
At In the footsteps our aim is to provide a top quality battlefield tour service across the battlefields of Northwest Europe. Our tours fall into three categories: -
Personalised Tours - These battlefield tours are ideal for those wishing to “follow in the footsteps” of an ancestor or relative on a genealogy tour or “follow in the footsteps of heroes” on a battlefield tour looking at the actions of a specific military unit or battle in which they have an interest. They are designed for individuals and/or small groups that wish to have a tailor-made tour designed specifically for them so that they can see what they want to see and visit the battlefield sites important to them. With these tours it is possible to arrange collection from and return to an agreed location either in the UK or battlefield area to suit those booking the tour.
Group Tours - These battelfield tours are ideal for large groups, such as a school, military unit, comrades association, club or organisation that want a battlefield tour for their members. These battlefield tours can be tailor-made to suit the requirements of the group and the battlefield being visited. With these battlefield tours it is possible to arrange collection from and return to an agreed location either in the UK or battlefield area to suit those booking the tour.
Coach Tours - These battlefield tours are our range of advertised coach tours scheduled to take place on set dates. They are open for individuals to book and visit some of the major battlefields of Northwest Europe. These coach tours have a set itinerary that cannot be tailored to suit the requirements of those booking places. They are a cost effective way to get a general feel for the battlefield area covered by the battlefield tour. Our coach tours depart from set locations and it is the individual's responsibility to get to that location in sufficient time to join the tour.

A tailor-made and personalised battlefield tour with In the footsteps takes you on a journey that is a truly unique experience and will leave you with memories that will last forever. Our previous tailor-made tours have included visits to the sites of the Western Front battlefields of the 1914-18 Great War; D-Day, Market Garden and the Battle of the Bulge from the Second World War; plus Waterloo, Agincourt, Mons, Verdun and more...

Dedication
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
