Opis

Discover the battlefields of Ypres, from trenches to Passchendaele, and go beneath the surface to uncover the hidden story of underground warfare.
Begin with a pickup in Ypres and head to the key sites of the Ypres battlefields. Explore the ground where soldiers lived, fought, and died. Stand in preserved trench systems and gain a clear understanding of daily life on the front line, from harsh conditions to the constant threat of attack.

As you move through the landscape, hear the story of the war unfold, covering the major battles, the first gas attacks, and the immense scale of the casualty system that operated behind the lines. Visit important cemeteries and memorials, where the work of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission is brought to life through the personal stories of the men who are remembered here.

In the afternoon, visit the outstanding Passchendaele Museum, which provides powerful insight into the events which unfolded during those three long months of battle. From here, travel to Hill 60 and the nearby Caterpillar Crater, where you will hear how vast tunnelling operations led to the detonation of enormous mines during the Battle of Messines in 1917—an event that reshaped the landscape and marked one of the most dramatic moments of the war. Throughout the day, your guide will combine historical context with personal stories, ensuring a deeper and more human understanding of the events that took place here.
