WW1 Somme Battlfields

Michael is an amazing tour guide and a delightful man. He is tremendously knowledgeable about WW1. We went to just the right number sites on our day long tour and had stops at the perfect time and place. One spot even had original trenches on the site with a museum-like artifact collection. Fabulous time!

An amazing day touring around the Somme battlefields with our very friendly tour guide Michael Smith. Highly recommend a day spent with such a knowledge experienced man who educated us so much on all questions & discussions relating to WW1. We wanted to find a particular headstone of a friends ancestor and Michael gladly took us to the appropriate cemetery where we found & photographed the headstone. Wonderful to visit Villers-Bretonneux & other Australian memorial’s during the day with lunch at Pozières. A brilliant day we will not forget.

We took this tour with Michael last summer and I still think about it often 6 months later, we didn't know what to expect going into it but I literally cannot imagine a better tour guide then this wonderful gentleman. Not only is he knowledgeable about the area and the events that happened, but he is deeply passionate about the history and what has happened since. Everywhere we went people knew him and we're happy to see him, and he brought us to places we would have never been able to find on our own. Not to mention his incredible knowledge of the plants of the region! I learned so much on this trip and it remains an extremely fond memory that I will surely keep my whole life, I cannot recommend it enough!

Michael Smith is an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and a nice guy. I really love seeing and walking in the trenches in "Ocean Villas", and the recreation in the Tommy Cafe.
