Thematic History Tours to Europe with Casterbridge
Casterbridge’s original headquarters was situated in the ancient English village of Templecombe, once home to the Knights Templar and close to some outstanding historic attractions. These include prehistoric Stonehenge; Roman and Georgian Bath; the Abbey ruins at Glastonbury; Old Sarum, where William the Conqueror discharged his army after his successful invasion of England; medieval Salisbury; and Winchester, the former capital of England.
With such an historic pedigree, it is hardly surprising that, in the last thirty years, we have operated an ever-increasing number of history tours and now offer an unrivaled range of worldwide itineraries to coincide with all aspects of the history curriculum.
Casterbridge Tours is a specialist in custom designing thematic history tours or thematic days on your tour. We can focus on any aspect of, or period in, European, American, or World History.

Thematic and Chronological Sightseeing
On any of our history tours, we genuinely attempt to avoid confusing group members with haphazard and unrelated materials. We aim, whenever possible, to provide thematic and chronologically arranged content to each day of a tour.
In France, for example, thematic days can be designed around The French Revolution, The Life of Napoleon, and The Normandy D-Day Invasion. Because we design your thematic days and touring chronologically, your students can track the course of momentous events, to make learning both fascinating and fun!
