The Holocaust in WW2 claimed more than 6 million victims across Europe. On this moving tour we follow the story of Anne Frank from her hiding in Holland to her death at Bergen-Belsen. We visit Concentration Camp sites, where the victims are remembered, including the most infamous at Auschwitz in what was German-occupied Poland during the Second World War, as well as seeing lesser known sites like Terezin. The tour ends with a look at the Nuremberg Trials where the full horror of the Holocaust was exposed.

Local departure by coach or Door-to-Door service, then to Holland for an overnight stay.
Today we travel to Westerbork and begin to follow the story of the Frank Family. Many Dutch Jews were forced into hiding under the German occupation, and in July 1942, Otto and Edith Frank went into hiding in the ‘Secret Annex’ of a house in Amsterdam, with their daughters Margot and Anne. Here they stayed for twenty-five months until the hiding place was betrayed. They were all then deported to the Westerbork Concentration Camp where we begin our tour at this important Holocaust Memorial site. We spend time at the camp and visit its museum before we continue to Germany for an overnight stay.
Includes Breakfast
Continuing Anne Frank’s story we visit Bergen-Belsen. After a month at Auschwitz, Anne and her sister Margot were transported to Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp, where thousands of people were dying of hunger and sickness every day. Margot and Anne both contracted typhus and died within a short time of each other in March 1945, only a few weeks before the liberation. We visit the site of the camp with its superb Holocaust Interpretation Centre and later have lunch in nearby Celle before continuing to Berlin where we stay for three nights.
Includes Breakfast
In Berlin, we begin at the Holocaust Memorial, visit the area that was the nerve-centre of the Third Reich and see the 'Topography of Terror' exhibition area. After lunch, we travel to west Berlin and visit 'Gleis 17' – a platform on a local railway station where thousands of Jews were deported from Berlin to Concentration Camps in the East. It now stands as a moving memorial to this sad chapter in Berlin’s past. At Wannsee we visit the conference centre where arguably the decision to carry out the ‘Final Solution’ was made (entrance subject to modern day conferences not taking place).
Includes Breakfast
On our second day in Berlin we travel to Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp, a site which its Soviet liberators continued to use as a place of terror into the Cold War. We return to central Berlin for free time, or you can join our optional tour of WW2 military history sites.
Includes Breakfast
Leaving Berlin we travel into Poland and stop at Wrocław. Once the German city of Breslau, it had a large Jewish population and later became a ‘Festung’ - a defended town - in 1945, finally surrendering to the Russians in May 1945. We have lunchtime here and free-time to explore the city centre, which shows many signs of WWII. We then continue to our hotel in Kraków for three nights.
Includes Breakfast
In Kraków, we visit the Oskar Schindler Factory and learn the amazing story behind the man who worked tirelessly to save as many of the city’s Jews as he could. The factory site is now a museum. We take a look at the site of the Kraków Ghetto and see Heroes Square. This evening join our optional evening in the Kazimierz district of Kraków, a major Jewish quarter vibrant with life. You will have free time here to purchase an evening meal.
Includes Breakfast
Our optional excursions are a great addition to enhance your holiday experience and are highly recommended.

At Auschwitz, we visit what has become one of the enduring symbols of the horror that was the Holocaust. We take a guided visit of Auschwitz before moving onto the vast site of Auschwitz-Birkenau, where an estimated one million were murdered in the ‘Final Solution’. A sobering but memorable day which brings together many of the Holocaust stories we follow on the tour.
Includes Breakfast
This morning we travel to Terezin – once Theresienstadt. This former Austro-Hungarian fortified town was turned into a Concentration Camp by the Nazis and used by them as a propaganda tool to give the impression that such camps were simply for detention. We stay tonight in Bavaria.
Includes Breakfast
We visit the Congress Hall which now houses a museum chronicling the rise and fall of the Nazis and linking it with the Holocaust story. We end our tour at the Nuremberg Courthouse where those who had orchestrated the Holocaust were tried after WW2, and, subject to modern-day demands, we also go into the courtroom itself; a fitting place to end our moving journey. We continue to Belgium for an overnight stay.

The tour itself visiting all the sites was very good, but bare in mind it’s a lot of time sitting on a coach & rushed stops as motorway services. 20 mins break wasn’t long enough, by the time you’ve queued for the toilet & got a coffee. A lot of walking is involved as you’d expect & some parts aren’t suitable for those with limited mobility. All in all a good informative tour that takes in many WW11 sites. For anyone interested in history this is the tour for you.

Extremely informative and absorbing tour. Itinerary very tight with little room for errors or delays. In our particular case, coach breakdown in Polish border on day 6 necessitated alternative transport arrangements which placed additional burden on our guide, who dealt with the problem admirably. Loss of Silver Service for 5 days, but itinerary accomplished much to our delight. A good tour for those wishing to experience history, but be aware of long journeys, early departures and late arrivals at hotel venues.

This tour you can expect long days with early starts and long bus journeys (around 2,700 miles from Dover), the length of the days could have been reduced with shorter lunch breaks. The coach broke down on the way to Krakow, so missed an excursion and was replaced with a basic coach without refreshments. The hotel in Berlin was poor, no restaurant and in an area with no restaurants, also room phones were not working. Leger should change hotel. The literary was very good but due to shortage of time a couple of excursions were missed. The guide at Auschwitz was very good, could have done with guides at a couple of other sites. Visit to Anne Frank`s house was a bit of a waste of time as it took a long while to get there and we only saw the outside from across a canal, the time would have been better spent travelling to the next site and getting to Germany etc.
