Overview
We first take you to Bruges for a short pick-up stop. We stop at a very moving German Cemetery, from where we drive to a section of the WW1 trenches. We will then visit the Monument of the Brooding Soldier. After a short lunchbreak we leave for Flanders Fields which was one of the major battlegrounds in the First World War.
Our expert guide will help you throughout the visit to understand the events that led to the first world war and how the catastrophe developed. We take you to Passchendaele battlefield and the Tyne Cot Cemetery, the largest Commonwealth cemetery in the world where British, Australian and Canadian soldiers lie at rest. You visit the Monument of the ‘Brooding Soldier’ and Essex Farm. At 8 pm you attend the Last Post Ceremony at Menin Gate (under restoration works until mid-2025), a daily tribute to all Commonwealth soldiers and officers that were missing after battle.

An informative and engaging experience filled with history about Belgium and the events that caused WW1.
Thank you Stefan!
We Will Remember Them
Published on May, 2025
A long day but a great day for history buffs and those wanting a reminder of the horrors and waste of life war causes! Last Post memorable/ we were lucky to have a choir as well- hard not to shed a tear or two! It is a long day so be prepared- if you don’t like getting on and off buses or late finishes give it a swerve but a 10/10 from me - thanks to Diedrich (sorry if wrong spelling) your knowledge was impressive! Stepping out the front line gave perspective and reassured the futility of war.
A very educational experience

Dietrich was best guide I've every had. A very thorough tour on WW1. Enough free time for meals. Very long day but well worth it.
