World War II Heritage Tour incorporating Excercise Tiger

This amazing tour begins meeting in Dartmouth, where you’ll visit Dartmouth’s historic museum where you’ll be given a short audio visual presentation in the meeting room covering the details and the background the tour which will follow. You will then be provided with tea and coffee before a tour of the museum itself.

The tour will begin walking along the embankment and a short walk to Dartmouth Castle where entrance and a self tour of the castle is available (subject to English Heritage seasonal opening times). After this, you will be taken by road to Blackpool Sands where some of the D-Day landing practices took place. This is then followed by a journey to the straight coastline of Slapton and Torcross, paying a visit first to the War Memorial and then to the Exercise Tiger Tank Memorial site, where a lone Sherman Tank forms the salute and tribute to those who tragically lost their lives on that fateful night of 28th April 1944.
