During your ten hour trip, you will be picked up from your named accommodation and dropped off there at the end. You will have a tour guide who talks you through the history of the places you will visit.

The places themselves are not for the feint of heart. You will visit the Vught Concentration Camp, formally named Hertogenbosch. Here you can retrace the final steps of many of the victims the Nazis imprisoned here. You will visit the Airborne Museum to see the artefacts and remnants of that time, and to read the stories of the individuals who worked here and died here during the Second World War.
