Flanders World War I Battlefields Private Tour
Overview of the tour in Brussels
Visit the impressive monuments that commemorate the lives of fallen soldiers and admire the natural splendor of the Belgian countryside as you travel. Listen to fascinating commentary from an expert guide as you see graves that immortalize those killed in the world’s first major conflict. Enrich your historical knowledge at the Flanders’ Field Museum, then feel your soul stir during a poignant Last Post ceremony in Ypres.
Discover the poignant history of World War I on a moving full-day tour to the Flanders battlefields from Brussels.
In a country where war was fought, it lingers, even if that war is already a century behind us. For each of the more than 600,000 dead who fell here, for each of the more than 425,000 graves and names on memorials and for the hundreds of traces and relics in the front region, for each of the millions affected (physically or psychologically wounded, refugees and displaced persons) there is a story of suffering, pain, and ordeal somewhere in the world.
The City of Peace Ypres and the In Flanders Fields Museum preserve the link with the war past because it is important for those who want to speak about peace and war today.
