Duty Nobly Done Battlefield Tours “Walk in their footsteps...”

Duty Nobly Done Battlefield Tours is an Australian owned and operated battlefield tour business dedicated to providing guests with an engaging and memorable visit to the Western Front battlefields.

As all their guides are Australian, they ensure the experiences and achievements of the Anzacs are told accurately within the context of the war, thus honouring their memories.

Join author Adam Holloway and expert guide Phil Hora in April 2024 and enjoy 10 days of touring the beautiful flowerladen countryside of ‘Flanders Fields’ and along the River Somme. Savour the delicious local fare, and the warm hospitality of a people who are ever grateful for the young Anzacs. Guests will form lasting friendships as they share this amazing adventure with likeminded Aussies and return home with many wonderful memories.

The ‘Anzac Day on the Western Front’ tour is especially popular as it includes the poignant ‘Dawn Service’ at the Australian National Memorial. Guests will walk the ground recaptured by the Australians in a tremendous ‘feat of arms’ on Anzac Day 1918. The grateful villagers of Villers-Bretonneux will never forget Australia and you will never forget this special occasion!

Through following the Anzac battalions across the very ground they fought on, and telling the stories of those courageous Australians, guests will get a real sense of not only where and how the battles unfolded, but the personal cost. The many beautifully maintained cemeteries that dot the landscape give mute testimony to the tremendous bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers of many nations who clashed on the battlefields of France and Belgium.

As they cover all the major Australian battlefields, guests will have the opportunity to visit their fallen soldier’s grave and pause for reflection. If they have no known grave, extensive research will uncover where they fought their last battle so guests can walk that sacred ground where their soldier relative forever rests with their mates.

Each guest embarks on this pilgrimage for reasons they may not yet be able to understand beyond some sense of that restless Anzac Spirit passed down by their relatives. It will be different for each person, but we believe you will find what you are looking for with Duty Nobly Done Battlefield Tours.
