Ypres, In Flanders Fields

This tour takes in the dramatic history of World War I and the battles fought in and around Ypres. Visit one of the British cemeteries and see the Menin Gate – a famous British War Memorial with the names of 54,896 missing soldiers engraved on its walls. Follow your journey to the In Flanders Fields Museum. This is not a traditional war museum, as it is not about weapons and strategy, it is about ordinary people who endured the war: the soldiers, nurses, fugitives, and children. Enjoy some free time for lunch on your own before you end your day by visiting the Essex Farm Cemetery.
