You can relive the amazing spirit and camaraderie of World War II and enjoy the various re-enactments, entertainment and vehicle displays. We also have time to wander and explore the pretty spa town of Harrogate on a quiet Sunday.

Lake Garda, Italy’s largest lake is perhaps the most beautiful lake in all of Europe. Its waters are incredibly transparent and the intense blue of the water and the luxurious vegetation add to its natural beauty. Garda’s expansive mirror surface glimmers deep within two rocky coastlines, its deepest point reaching down over 340 meters. Its scenery differs from mountainous and jagged in the North to gently hilly in the South. Throughout the lake region the climate is pleasant and exceptionally mild which favours the growth of a predominately Mediterranean vegetation (olives, grapes, figs, oleanders, magnolias, palm trees, etc).
