Welcome to Williamsomme Tours

Menin Gate in Ypres (Closed for refurbishment until May 2025 – Last Post Ceremony held on adjacent bridge)

Williamsomme tours, formed in 2008, offers individual tailored, personal and memorable tours of the First World War Western Front and Second World War Normandy Landing sites.

Our tours offer an unforgettable experience and we enhance the service by undertaking research for those wishing to follow in the footsteps of their ancestors. Many important battlefields are visited during the tour, along with museums, visitors’ centres and towns and cities behind the lines. Occasionally visits are made to sites well off the beaten track to follow in the footsteps of soldiers who fought in these devastating conflicts. Tours can be lengthened or altered to enable visits to be made to other nearby historical sites; Crecy (1346), Agincourt (1415), La Coupole V2 launch site, 1943 and the VI Bois Carre launch site, around 500m from the farmhouse.

Careful planning for your tour commences from your first enquiry so that we can build a bespoke experience for you. Please do not hesitate to contact us!
