In the realm of travel, especially when it involves historical and military tours, there’s a profound difference between merely visiting a site and truly experiencing it. Cornwall DMC, a specialist group tour operator based in the UK, offers an unparalleled journey through history, tailored specifically for the travel trade from the USA, Canada, Australia & New Zealand and around the world, including tour operators, travel agents and group leader. We offer a range of sample itineraries and tour ideas but if you can’t see what you are looking for, please contact us.
Here’s why choosing a local specialist like us is not just beneficial, but essential:
1. Unparalleled Local Knowledge
When you travel with Cornwall DMC, you’re not just seeing history; you’re walking through it with experts who know every inch of the terrain. Our guides have an intimate understanding of:
Battlefield Tactics: Understand the strategic decisions behind historic military manoeuvres. Our guides can recount the exact strategies used by commanders, bringing the battlefield alive with narratives of courage, strategy, and sometimes, tragedy.
Historical Context: Learn not just about the battles but the why, the how, and the aftermath. Every location visited comes with a story, told by those who’ve studied it for years, ensuring you grasp the full scope of historical events.
2. Personal Connections and Authenticity
Veteran Insights: Our tours are often led or accompanied by veterans or their descendants. This personal touch adds layers of authenticity and emotion, connecting travelers with real stories from those who lived through the events or are deeply connected to them.
Memorials and Tributes: Visiting battlefields, memorials, and cemeteries becomes a poignant experience. Our expertise ensures that these visits are respectful, educational, and deeply moving, honoring those who served.
3. Tailored Experiences
Custom Itineraries: We understand that each group might have different interests or focuses. Whether it’s the detailed history of the D-Day landings or the broader scope of WWII in England, our itineraries can be customized to suit the depth of knowledge and interest your group brings.
Local Engagement: Beyond the battlefields, we incorporate visits to local towns, villages, and museums. These are not random stops but carefully chosen to complement the military history with a taste of local culture and life during and post-conflict.
4. Reputation and Trust
Repeat Clients: Cornwall DMC has built a loyal client base with veteran’s relatives, and military history enthusiasts. The fact that they return year after year speaks volumes about the quality and depth of the experience we provide.
Specialized Tours: Our most requested tours, like the D-Day Beaches, the Battle of the Bulge, or the life of Winston Churchill, are not just trips; they are comprehensive educational journeys through time.
5. Educational Value
Learning Beyond the Books: History textbooks can only tell so much. Our tours offer a three-dimensional learning experience where participants can see, feel, and sometimes even hear the echoes of history, making it tangible.
What we offer:
All our group tours are bespoke and we look forward to designing a customised itinerary to suit your requirements. We’d be pleased to answer any questions you have or to discuss the possibility of creating a range of bespoke Military Tours for you or your clients
