They are the Spies & Special Forces and their remarkable contribution to warfare is told in this exciting two-week tour of England, France, Belgium and Holland, featuring the 75th Anniversary of Operation Market Garden with special events in Arnhem, Holland​.

Remembrance Day at Vimy Ridge
& a visit to Juno Beach, Normandy

November 2-15, 2019  (14 days)

November 11, 1918 at 11:00 in the morning. The eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month. So came to an end "the war to end all wars." The guns finally fell silent, bringing to a close four long years of unspeakable conflict. The Canadians will suffer gas attacks, infested trenches, misery. Yet through it all the Canadian Expeditionary Force will prove to be the fighting force which will earn them the nickname Shock Troops as they achieve important victories at Vimy, Hill 70, Passchendaele, Amiens and more. And Canada will earn its place as a signatory to the Treaty of Versailles.

Join us as we stand at Vimy Ridge on Remembrance Day - November 11 - to commemorate the 101st Anniversary of Armistice Day and to honour all those who have served our country.
