British Veterans Travel offers the opportunity for those who fought in North Africa during WWII, particularly in Libya, to return to their battlefields and remember lost comrades. Veterans of WWII who wish to return to the place where they saw action are able to apply to the Big Lottery Fund for funding from Heroes Return 2.

Until now, visiting all the battlefields of the Western Desert Campaign of WWII has not been easy due to closed borders and red tape. British Veterans Travel, working with operators in Libya, is pleased to announce a trip that visits the strategic points of the campaign from Sidi Rezegh, Gazala, Tobruk and on to Benghazi. This Commemorative Tour offers the chance for WWII Veterans to visit Libya, for so long a country closed to tourism, and remember comrades whose graves remain carefully tended.
