The Battle of Arnhem (from Amsterdam)
Amsterdam, Aruba
I will pick you up from your hotel and we drive to the Arnhem area. We will visit the drop zones and see how far the soldiers had to go to reach the bridge by Arnhem. We visit the Airborne Museum and of course the bridge itself, passing many important spots where key events of the battle took place. I will show you the story from the perspective of the soldiers and citizens, in Oosterbeek and Arnhem, and let you experience the chaos, the missed opportunities, and the tragedy the battle came to be.
