Holts Tours is the leading battlefield and history tours company, offering a comprehensive programme of tours covering a wide range of historical periods, from the first and second world wars, revolution and empire, to ancient and medieval history.

Outstanding battlefield guides and historians accompany all tours, bringing the history to life. All guides have varied military or academic backgrounds and many have written critically acclaimed books or presented a diverse range of television programmes.

When on tour with Holts, travellers see countries from a fresh perspective. Often behind the peaceful countryside, village and town there is another story and an opportunity to see how the past has shaped the present.

Part of Titan Travel Ltd, Holts benefits from the services of an award-winning tour operator, including the unique 'VIP Home Departure Service TM' - a chauffeur service where travellers are picked up from home and taken to the airport , and then chauffeured home when returning from the tour. This unique service is available on all air tours.

Next year, Holts celebrates 30 years of being the leading battlefield tour company and has a fascinating tour programme lined up to suit anyone with a taste for history and travel.

As well as old favourites including tours to the Western Front and the beaches of the Normandy landings, Holts will be offering an exciting selection of new tours in 2007 including the study of new aspects of battles and personalities of the First World War, to sites connected with more recent history such as the Cold War. It also expands into new destinations, including the Virginia area of the USA for the Jamestown tour.
