What to expect
Amiens
50m
Amiens Cathedral
Begin the day in Amiens with a visit to the largest Gothic cathedral in France — the same landmark that soldiers on their way to the front saw as a symbol of the world they were fighting to protect. A perfect emotional and historical starting point before heading east toward the battlefields.
Australian National Memorial
30m · Admission ticket included
Pay tribute to the Australian soldiers who traveled halfway across the world to fight on the Western Front. The John Monash Centre features world-class interactive exhibits and films that bring their stories to life. Climb the memorial tower for a sweeping view over the Somme valley.
Historial de la Grande Guerre
2h · Admission ticket included
Immerse yourself in the most comprehensive WWI museum in the region. Personal objects, uniforms, letters, maps, and immersive exhibitions present the war through British, French, and German perspectives. The Otto Dix collection and two documentary films make this a truly unmissable experience — the essential historical foundation for everything you will see on the battlefields ahead.
30m
Stand before the largest Commonwealth war memorial in the world, dedicated to over 72,000 British and South African soldiers with no known grave. One of the most powerful and moving sites of the entire day.
Albert
1h
Take a well-deserved break in this small Somme town, which stood just behind the front lines during the war. Several local restaurants are available on the main square.
Lochnagar Crater
40m · Admission ticket included
Witness one of the largest mine craters of the First World War, detonated on the opening morning of the Battle of the Somme on July 1, 1916. A visceral and unforgettable reminder of the scale of destruction.
Beaumont-Hamel
40m
Walk through remarkably preserved trenches and the original no man's land at this extraordinary battlefield park. Canadian volunteer guides bring the stories of the Newfoundland Regiment to life in this deeply moving final stop on the Western Front.
Paris
2h
Begin the return journey to Paris, with time to reflect on an unforgettable day of remembrance.
