ANZAC Day Western Front Tours


Celebrating 11 Years of ANZAC Commemorative Touring

With age comes experience!  Every April for the last 11 years Albatross Tours has repeatedly provided quality, touring experiences to the Australian commemorative traveller.

With experience comes expertise! All our tours are tried, tested and proven. We have a significant track record.  Our past passenger feedback endorses the fact that the Albatross Tours delivers the most memorable and fulfilling commemorative touring experience on the market.

You will love our ANZAC tours because…

  • You can rely on the very best commentary as our ANZAC commemorative tours are fully supported throughout by our dedicated team of Battlefield Tour Managers and on selected tours our expert War Historian.*
  • Rest assured all of our ANZAC commemorative hotels are in superb locations close to all the essential commemorative sites. We make a point of clearly naming each hotel name and telling you where it is!
  • Our tours are genuinely inclusive - all of your sightseeing, special dinners and entrances are already included in our tour price. There are no later charged extras or expensive optional excursions lists. Even your end of tour tips for the tour manager, driver and local guides are included.
  • Once you have booked and deposited, you can rest easy as we guarantee that if the value of the Australian dollar drops, your tour price will not go up.
  • We will not disappoint you - our tours are guaranteed to depart with as few as only 7 passengers (your travel agent can explain the importance of guaranteed group departures).
