Rommel's Desert: Private Siege-of-Tobruk Battlefield Tour

A private full-morning drive through the Gazala line, Ras el Medauar, and the perimeter defenses with an expert guide who reconstructs the 1941 siege on the ground.

What to expect

You'll travel by 4x4 out past the town into open desert scattered with wrecked tanks and trench lines, the guide narrating troop movements against the actual terrain. Stops include Italian and German positions as well as the Australian defensive perimeter. It's raw, quiet, and unmistakably historic ground.
