Why Choose Mercat Tours International for Adults Tours?

Both The World War I Battlefields Experience and The World War II D-Day Landings Experience appeal to people of all ages and from all walks of life.

WW1 Soldiers and Commonwealth CemeteryPerhaps you are simply interested in extending your knowledge and understanding of one of the World Wars. Perhaps you are drawn by the opportunity 'to walk in the footsteps' of your forebears. Perhaps you wish to make a personal pilgrimage to the grave of one of your relatives.

Possibly you represent an existing group: we are delighted to accommodate adult groups in our programme and can arrange dates to your own specific requirements.

Your battlefield experience addresses all of these aims – and more.

Mercat Tours International has created two battlefield tours whose presentation and content combine to give you a truly memorable experience. Under the sensitive direction of your historian-guide you participate in the unfolding story - puzzling, questioning, reacting, discussing. Your knowledge deepens. Your respect for the soldiers' suffering and sacrifice deepens. And your views on the necessity of war experience turmoil.

The past is our prologue. We ignore our past and its lessons at our cost. The men who lost their lives in World War I and World War II did so for many reasons but were united in their belief that it was for the greater good.

We do remember them.
