Welcome To Rifleman Battlefield Tours

Battlefield Tours

Rifleman Tours has been visiting the battlefields of Western Europe for over twelve years. We offer informal, friendly tours that are founded upon a quality customer service for which, we are very proud to say, we have been awarded the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for another year.

We cater for all group sizes, but most of our tours are designed for smaller numbers which we find most travellers prefer. Our tours are suitable for everyone from the first time battlefield visitor to the history student and experienced researcher. In fact, our guests come from all walks of life and span all ages.

All our tours have a flexible itinerary which makes it easy to accommodate passengers wishing to visit a particular memorial or cemetery.Battlefield Tours

We travel by executive coach/minibus travel from the UK with on-board refreshments and stay in quality hotel accommodation right in the town centre (such as Ypres, Arras and Caen). Lunches are catered for and museum entrance fees covered during your battlefield tours on touring days (check ‘Included In Your Tour’).

You may prefer not to travel with a group, or wish to relate closely to the war experience of a family member. In this case, our bespoke battlefield tours may suit you better. We can tailor-make a tour for you helping to create an itinerary and help you to research any World War One or World War Two records that may exist about your relative, incorporating this information into your tour to allow you to walk in the footsteps of your ancestor.

Battlefield Tours

Groups and Associations are also catered for. If you are a Military Unit/AssociationWestern Front, U3A, British Legion Branch, school or just a group of friends then we can arrange a battlefield tour or combined battlefield and cultural tour that can suit your group.

Please take a look at our site and the many tours on offer. We believe we can offer the perfect battlefield tour for you at a competitive price. But don’t take our word for it, read our testimonials and Tripadviser reviews and let Rifleman Tours make your visit to the battlefields of World War One and World War Two a truly memorable experience.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be only too happy to help.

Let us take you to your relative’s grave or memorial

For many people a trip to the battlefields is a pilgrimage and the chance to visit a long lost relative’s grave or see their name on a memorial. Over the years we’ve helped many of our travellers achieve this, in some cases being the first family member to ever visit their relative’s grave. We will do everything we can to include this in our tour, just ask us.
