Inspiring and engaging Guided History Tours

Our team of expert and highly experienced guides, each selected not only for the depth of their historical knowledge but more importantly for their ability to engage and inspire your students, are there to ensure they gain the maximum educational benefit from the tour and to deal with any problems that may arise – no matter how serious.

Top Guided History Tours for Schools

Battlefield Tours
Cold War Berlin

Military History Tours

We provide battlefield studies that range from a Realities of War package for the Initial Training Group, through battlefield studies for regular and reserve units, to high level staff rides for major UK and NATO headquarters. 

Every client is different and so are their requirements. Our commitment is to facilitate training that not only meets unit or headquarters’ training aims but is conducted in a manner appropriate to the group. To achieve this the package must be workable on the ground, financially viable and above all, a positive and enjoyable learning experience for the participants.

Consequently, the first step for our mainly ex-Service staff is to discuss with the project officer the training outcomes that the commander wishes from the study. From there we work with project officers to produce workable itineraries, administrative plans, materials required by, for instance, the Army’s AGAI 23 and the supporting training aids.

On the ground during the study or staff ride our guides deliver the historical content and take on the administrative burden, maximising the numbers able to focus on training delivery and outcomes.
