Somme 1916 Museum Tickets and Tours

Full day Somme 110th private tour

Could not have had a better tour!

Being a retired military member and a (very) amateur historian, I wanted to spend a day touring the Somme battlefields and walk the ground. Olivier did not disappoint! His knowledge of the multiple units, battles, and supporting history of the area was Ph.D level…punctuated with human interest stories of the most personal kind. His use of an iPad loaded with actual trench maps added an extraordinary level of greater understanding as we rode between front lines and from village to village. We had a long day from our start at St Quentin until the end to catch our train back to Paris and he never flagged. The next time we return to France, I will book Olivier to tour American battlefields that are nearby. His expertise extends to all the WWI battles in the Picardy area. Bottom Line: this is an outstanding experience and I highly recommend Olivier and Chemins d’Historie.

WW1, The British Empire on the Somme

Fantastic experience!

Brigitte was a phenomenal guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable having grown up in the Somme and her passion for the War was very clear. She shared a ton of information without ever seeming dull. She was also very flexible when we needed a slight change of plan. I would recommend this tour to anyone- especially to gain a very broad understanding of the battle.

Full Day Private Battle of the Somme Tour from Albert

Brilliant guide, fascinating day

Brigitte made the day very special for my mother and I, adapting her tour to focus on specific places that were important to us. She was so knowledgeable and patient and kind, I highly recommend going on this tour!
