Itinerario
La batalla de Arras, abril de 1917 Comenzamos a visitar el Centro de visitantes de Vimy Ridge. Dependiendo de la asistencia, se agregará la visita al túnel Grange para explorar y descubrir un lado oculto de la guerra de trincheras. Cruzando la línea canadiense a través de tierra de nadie, caminaremos en el sistema de trincheras alemán frente a las posiciones canadienses. Y luego, conduciremos al Memorial de Canadá diseñado por Walter Seymour Allward y completamente renovado en 2007. Antes de dirigirnos al sector de Somme, nos detendremos en el cementerio canadiense de Givenchy Road.
Este cementerio contiene las tumbas de 108 canadienses que cayeron el 9 de abril y los siguientes días de la batalla.
Almorzaremos en un café / restaurante local en La Boisselle o Pozières.
Después del almuerzo, visitaremos el Parque Terranova de Beaumont-Hamel, donde el Regimiento de Terranova sufrió el segundo peor nivel de bajas de un regimiento el primer día de la batalla del Somme. Su sistema de trincheras muy bien conservado es imprescindible para ayudarnos a comprender la guerra de trincheras. El Caribou Memorial y el Danger Tree están orgullosamente frente a la línea del ejército alemán.
La batalla del Somme, 1916 Después de visitar Vimy Ridge, nos dirigimos ahora al sector de la batalla del Somme de 1916. La primera parada es en el Canadian Memorial of Courcelette. Esta aldea fue capturada por los canadienses a mediados de septiembre de 1916 el mismo día en que los tanques se utilizarán por primera vez en la historia.

Olivier our guide was Great! Olivier helped us with directions to get to Arras on train from Paris. The tour was absolutely amazing!! Olivier is a wealth of knowledge and was always telling us about every area we drove through. Vimy Memorial is a must see.
A completely immersive experience that brings you along the front lines of the Canadian military presence in WWI. Absolutely amazing guide in Olivier, thorough, organized and incredible relevant details, worth the time and costs. A marvelous day together, highly suggest this tour.
First of all, I want to acknowledge that Olivier is such a wonderful person. Leading up to the trip, he was in contact to ensure we knew where to meet and what to expect from the day. Being from Newfoundland, we wanted to prioritize time visiting Beaumont Hamel. Olivier was able to make adjustments with ease, ensuring we seen the best of both the Canadian and Newfoundland history of WWI. Notably, Olivier had amazing battle line/trench maps on his iPad that updated in real time throughout the drive. It gave context that would have otherwise been lost to us. Olivier, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience and something we will never forget.
Olivier informed about Vimy Ridge, Beaumont-Hamel, battlefield maps Right balance of informing/free time Awesome!
Get ready to be busy with Olivier, a well informed and detail oriented guide who runs this tour company. As a Canadian, Veteran and somewhat of an history buff, I have been planning to get to the north of France for the Great War and WW2 experience. I found Chemins d’Histoire Battlefield Tours. What a great day! I am picky and, due to my interest in details, wish that the guide basically does not stop educating, detailing, presenting, explaining during the whole drive. I was more than satisfied!! It was perfect. We didn’t have many questions to ask as all the information was provided in detail including an iPad showing where we were in real time among the trenches and frontlines of the Battle of the Somme, Arras and the taking of Vimy Ridge by the 4 Canadian Divisions. When we did ask or discuss clarifications, it was filled with facts. The perfect type of tour if you are a Canadian and especially if you are related to a valiant member of our Forces who was part of the Great War at Vimy or the Somme. Olivier will work with you and guide you along the movement of your relative throughout the mission. Fantastic day. Merci Olivier
Our tour guide Olivier was amazing, a wealth of information, showing diagrams and maps of the war strategies. The only slight criticism I might have was that he had a very thick accent and talked very fast, so we may not have been able to take in all of the information. Otherwise it was a fantastic tour
Our guide, Olivier, shared his very extensive knowledge of the significance of the sites we visited, not only for the Canadian units and the (Royal) Newfoundland Regiment, but in the context of the Allied strategy and tactics. He also described the German strategy throughout the war. His use of battlefield maps on which his GPS plotted our tour was illuminating and helped us to understand the changing front lines of the course of the war. Visiting these sites was a wonderful experience made more memorable by Olivier’s presentation.
Olivier was an excellent tour guide who personalised the tour to suit our needs. We appreciated the ability to ask lots of questions and for Olivier to know all the answers. Merci!
Oliver was amazing. His knowledge of how all the battles worked together and the gps map he used as we drove that showed the battle lines and trenches really helped put it all together. We walked close to 10 km that day but it was worth it.
Hi ! Thanks for your review! I'm pleased the battle context and visual aids enhanced your experience. A good walk indeed! Best wishes, Olivier
Oliver’s knowledge of the battles and how it all worked together was amazing. He really helped draw it all together. Would highly recommend him to anyone.
