Leger Holidays has released its latest ‘Battlefield Tours – Walk in the Footsteps of Heroes’ brochure for 2026/27, which includes 10 new tours.
The escorted coach tour company’s programme now features 55 battlefield experiences in the UK and Europe.
Among the new tours is a five-day ‘Anzio, Monte Cassino and San Pietro – Italian Campaign by Air’ tour priced from £1,029 per person.
The tour includes flights to Rome, escorted coach travel, visits to war museums and cemeteries, and the San Pietro battlefield site.
The Menin Gate Memorial (pictured) in Ypres, Belgium, will commemorate its 100th anniversary in 2027, and Leger is offering a five-day ‘Menin Gate Centenary’ tour priced from £519pp.
There are also two new ‘Mini-Cruise and Tour’ itineraries – ‘Siegfried Line and Battle of the Bulge Mini-Cruise’ and ‘WW2 Arnhem and Rhineland Mini-Cruise and Tour’.
They combine overnight sailings from Newcastle to IJmuiden, North Holland, with escorted coach travel. The packages include a cabin, dinner, and breakfast, plus access to on-board facilities.
Head of Retail Sales Ashley Dellow said: “Our Battlefield Tours programme is designed to help customers gain a deeper understanding at significant battle sites, while paying their respects at powerful memorials connected to those who served. With access to specialist museums and the expertise of our knowledgeable guides, who are truly passionate about military history, we ensure every tour offers an insightful and meaningful experience.”
