ANZAC Centenary Tours
Polygon Wood and
Passchendaele (Belgium) 24 September to 8 October 2017 TOUR FULLY SUBSCRIBED
Polygon Wood was a success where dash, gallantry and good leadership held the advance together and all the objectives were captured, but at again with a large casualty rate. Passchendaele followed a few days later, although a different Division was involved than that which fought at Polygon Wood. This action was fought in a quagmire, caused by the British Artillery bombardment followed by incessant rain that turned this ground into one of the most notorious killing fields of the Western Front. As well as these two battles we will tour The Somme battlefields of France.

Charge at Beersheba Centenary Tour Israel 22 October - 3 November 2017 TOUR FULLY SUBSCRIBED
Be at the site where 100 years before in the closing light of day on 31 October 1917 the 4th Light Horse Brigade charged into history. All of the ANZAC mounted units to the East of the Mediterranean in what is now Israel were there either surrounding the town, in the charge or in reserve so if your family has a light horse heritage this is a tour for you.
The tour will cover most of Israel in particular where battles between the Australian Light Horse, New Zealand Mounted Rifles and forces of the Ottoman Empire were fought and other significant historical sites.

Villers-Bretonneux (France) 20 April to 2 May 2018
The attack that recaptured Villers-Bretonneux was described by Brigadier General G W Grogan VC as "perhaps the greatest individual feat on the War". A night attack without artillery support captured Villers-Bretonneux on ANZAC Day 1918 and stopped the German main advance. The German Force did not advance another metre after that date. Join us on ANZAC Day at the Australian Memorial to commemorate that action 100 years ago to the day.
