Day trip to Somme Battlefields, Australian memorial and Amiens cathedral from Paris
Overview
Enjoy an unforgettable day trip from Paris to the Somme Battlefields, where the bloodiest battles of World War I were fought. Your guide will tell you about the Great War and the struggles faced in the trenches as you walk on the still scarred battlegrounds of the Somme.
