Deep Dive into the Battle of Arnhem – with an Expert Guide

2 day Deep Dive into the Battle of Arnhem – with an Expert Guide

Join us for a private two-day Battle of Arnhem Tour and explore the battlefields in and around Arnhem, Oosterbeek, and Wolfheze with one of our expert local guides.
Travel in comfort by luxury car or minivan, while your guide brings history to life through detailed storytelling, eyewitness accounts, and original wartime photos.
Each day lasts approximately six hours.

Our guides are true specialists in the Battle of Arnhem. They have spent years researching this chapter of World War II and are passionate about sharing the stories of those who fought here.

Personal Research – Walking in the Footsteps of Your Relative

Do you have a father, grandfather, or uncle who fought in the Battle of Arnhem?
Many veterans returned home after the war and rarely spoke about their experiences in the Netherlands, leaving families with unanswered questions.

We can help fill in those missing pieces.
If you provide us with the soldier’s name, division, and army number, our team will conduct research into his movements and involvement during the battle. During the tour, we’ll take you to the exact locations where your relative fought, was stationed, or captured — allowing you to literally walk in his footsteps.

These personal, tailor-made tours are deeply meaningful, and for many families, they bring a sense of connection and closure.

Like Ruth, who recently joined us for the two-day Battle of Arnhem Tour:

“I can’t thank ArnhemLife and our guide David enough for providing such an amazing surprise for my partner.
With Petra’s kind help, I was able to request a more personalised experience, following in Jock’s footsteps (my partner’s father), as he and his fellow soldiers attempted to battle their way through to the bridge at Arnhem.
Our guide David, provided us with a meticulously researched tour, with letters, photos and information referring to Jock, that we hadn’t seen before. David has a wealth of knowledge and experience that helped us form a clearer picture of Jock’s journey. From visiting his landing site, to his eventual capture on 19 September 1944. David took us to the exact spot Jock was taken prisoner.
Needless to say, it was an unforgettable and emotional two days, which have answered many questions for my partner.
I highly recommend ArnhemLife for their professionalism, care and attention to detail when planning such an amazing tour for us. Thank you Petra and David!”
