Each year as November approaches, millions of people across the UK and the Commonwealth wear poppies in remembrance of all those who have served and sacrificed in conflict.

The poppy first came to symbolise remembrance on the battlefields of the First World War. As shelling and trench-digging churned the ground in France and Belgium, poppy seeds that had been dormant deep in the soil were brought to the surface, and the land was blanketed with the vivid red flowers. Inspired by this sight, Canadian doctor Lt Col John McCrae wrote ‘In Flanders Fields’ in 1915, and within a few years of the Armistice, the poppy had become an enduring global symbol of remembrance.

Make next year's Armisitice Day especially memorable by joining our Armistice in Flanders Fields tour, featuring a visit to Essex Farm – the site where McRae wrote the poem that solidified the poppy's symbolism: https://ow.ly/OGYR5100qXG

November begins, and with it a time of quiet reflection.

From the fields of Flanders to the shores of Normandy, the cemeteries and memorials of two world wars hold the names of those who never came home. Each headstone marks a life – a son, a brother, a husband, a friend.

As Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day approach, we pause to think of every one of them.

On this day in 1940, the Battle of Britain officially came to an end.

For almost four months, the Royal Air Force defended the skies over Britain against the Luftwaffe. Without control of the air, Germany could not invade, and the battle marked its first major defeat of the war.

Britain fought on, and the long road to victory in Europe began. Walk that road with a Specialist Battlefield Guide on our WW2 battlefield tours: https://ow.ly/W5ZO51002Jt

Does your family have memories or stories of the Battle of Britain? We’d be honoured to hear them in the comments.

Thank you, Joe, for sharing your experience of our D-Day Landings tour in Normandy.

It’s always a privilege to hear how our Specialist Battlefield Guides help to bring the events of June 1944 to life – and how our drivers provide a seamless, comfortable journey along the way!

From the landing beaches to nearby cemeteries and memorials, Normandy remains one of the most moving places to reflect on the courage and sacrifice of those who took part in the liberation of Europe.

On 25 October 1936 – 90 years ago today – Italy and Germany signed an agreement that marked the beginning of the Rome–Berlin Axis. Days later, Mussolini gave the partnership its name, declaring that Europe would now revolve around a Rome–Berlin “axis”.

In September 1940, Japan joined them with the signing of the Tripartite Pact. United by expansionist ambition, fierce nationalism and hostility towards communism, the Axis powers would wage a war that cost tens of millions of lives across Europe, Africa and Asia.

At the core of the alliance stood N**i Germany, whose rise from the political fringes of 1920s Munich to the domination of Europe represents one of the darkest chapters of the 20th century.

Trace that story, from its beginnings to its downfall, on our 12-day Rise & Fall of the Third Reich tour, visiting Munich, Nuremberg and Berlin: https://ow.ly/YCZ050ZZljk

On this day in 1944, Aachen became the first major German city to surrender to the Allies during the Second World War.

American troops had broken through the Siegfried Line nearby in September, and the battle for the city that followed left much of it in ruins. The fighting led by the US 1st Division, the Big Red One, opened the way into Germany, though the advance would remain slow and costly for months to come.

On our WW2 Battlefields & Christmas Markets tour, you’ll stand among the Dragon’s Teeth where that breakthrough happened, visit the Big Red One memorial, and pay your respects at Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery, where many who fell at Aachen now rest. Then it’s back to Aachen to hear the story of the battle before exploring the Christmas markets around the city’s historic Cathedral. https://ow.ly/xPt250ZYmgJ
