Testimonials

The Mercat Tours Battlefield Experience is the finest school trip of its kind.

Mr Fraser, Buckhaven High, WW1 Battlefields Experience

This trip has been exceptional, not because of the food, hostel or the bus journey but because of what you did, taking us to all those amazing places and telling us about the war. The trip was very special.
