A simple way to start planning
Fill in the enquiry form or call
Let us know where you want to go or what you want to do, the dates you would like to travel, what accommodation you require, how many people are in your party, and where you would like to be picked up and dropped off, and we will put together a draft itinerary.
Review your itinerary
We refine the itinerary to suit your requirements until the plan feels right. You will then receive a tour proposal.
It’s what you want that matters
At In The Footsteps Tours, we plan specialist journeys drawn from military history, British heritage and history, literature, and family genealogy, turning important places into clear, memorable stories. Our team of historians and guides lead tours across the UK, Europe and worldwide, shaping each trip around what matters to you. With 20+ years of experience, we create journeys that will leave you with memories that last a lifetime.
Tours that follow the history you care about
Private itineraries shaped to your interests
Every trip starts with understanding what you want to experience and see. We can build an itinerary around a campaign or battle, your ancestry research, a particular author, or a heritage and cultural theme. We then detail the route, select the accommodation, and assign a historian or guide to suit your requirements.
With In the Footsteps Tours, you are not simply pushed through a set script or rushed around the locations, but the itinerary is tailored to meet your requirements. Each itinerary is refined to match your mobility needs, and the experience is grounded in sound research. Explore our website, Facebook page and X feed before you call.
