What you can expect

  • Departing from the town of Albert, in your own vehicle or coach, Perrine will show you the key sites of the “Circuit du souvenir”. This 3-hour guided tour takes in three emblematic sites: the La Boisselle mine crater - one of the most impressive and best-preserved on the Western Front - the Thiepval Franco-British memorial and its military cemeteries, and the former Beaumont-Hamel battlefield. This itinerary guarantees a true experience through the history of the First World War!

    The tour starts and finishes at Place Émile Leturcq, Albert.
