Philosophy
"A nation which does not want a past clearly does not deserve a future."
(Alexander von Humboldt)
Sixty years after the end of World War II, Battlefield Travel is aiming to offer military history enthusiasts an opportunity to experience military history in a professional and exclusive environment. That means no floundering around at a site on your own without professional support, no tedious search for the ideal hotel, no lack of subject matter to talk about and conversely the potential to make new friends. This is not "doing Europe" in a tour bus with 60 other people; this is travelling in style with no more than 20 like-minded people.
Battlefield Travel offers top-calibre history, battlefields, military facilities and people. Small groups, accompanied by a historian, will bring alive the preparations, plans and execution of decisive battles in such a way that you will almost hear and feel the noise and impact of the battle.
We take account of the needs of sophisticated travellers by choosing only hotels which offer special historic significance, exceptional luxury or even both at once.
Immerse yourself in an era which made exceptional demands on its combatants. Take an interest in events so very far removed from the consciousness of citizens in today's peaceful and united Europe. Learn from history. Treat yourself to an experience which you have long wanted to have but were never able to realise because there was nothing like this on offer.
Battlefield Travel offers you the setting for you to fulfil a dream with your spouse, partner or friend.
