Leading specialist battlefield tour operator, Mat McLachlan Battlefield Tours, has launched a new website providing easier search-ability of its over 50+ tours, instant live chat during business hours, online tour brochures, and information resources including media articles and podcasts.

Matt Masson, General Manager Touring for Mat McLachlan Battlefield Tours said, “We are excited to launch our new website just ahead of the anticipated launch of our 2020 brochure and new range of tours for the coming year, including a number of flagship tours such as the very special Western Front tour with Ray Martin and Mat McLachlan – which departs in June 2020.”

Last minute bookings for a number of 2019 tours are also still available, including:

  • the best-selling 4-day Western Front Explorer Tour (from $1997pp), with five tours still to run in October and November 2019 (departures: 1 October; 8 October; 15 October; 22 October; 8 November); and
  • the 12-day Vietnam Past & Present Tour departing on 24 November 2019 ($3147pp), which invites travellers to both walk in the footsteps of the 50,000 Anzacs who served in the Vietnam War, as well as discover many of the country’s cultural treasures including the imperial capital of the Nguyen Lords, Hue; the World Heritage ancient town of Hoi An; the colourful local markets; plus the mouth-watering cuisine.

“Our Western Front Explorer Tour is the ideal complement to any Europe trip, departing and returning from Paris and providing an excellent overview of the key Anzac sites on the Western Front including the Flanders Fields, Ypres, the Somme, Passchendaele and more,” said Masson. “In 2020 we are excited to announce we will have 32 departures for this tour running from April to November.”

“We have also found Vietnam to be a growing destination of interest, and the response to our Vietnam Past & Present Tour – designed to showcase both the country’s rich culture as well as its war-time history – has been such that we have expanded our Vietnam offering to two tours for 2020: departing in April – to coincide with Anzac Day, and August – to coincide with Vietnam Veterans Day” said Masson.

Agents are invited to explore the new website, battlefields.com.au, connect with the battlefields team via live chat, and pre-order copies of the 2020 brochure now.
