A Bit About Me

I'm Kimberley Wright, the owner and guide behind Kim's Battlefield Tours, an independent battlefield tour business based in Ypres, Belgium. I specialise in private and small-group tours of the First World War battlefields, including personalised tours that explore family history and, where possible, follow in the footsteps of relatives who served.

​

Originally from the small seaside town of New Brighton near Liverpool, I relocated to Belgium in 2015. Not long after, I found myself increasingly drawn to the town of Ypres and the profound history of the First World War.

After spending time exploring the battlefields of Ypres and the Somme, my interest quickly turned into a deep passion. That passion eventually led me to pursue a new direction in life: becoming a battlefield guide.

​

Since then, I’ve had the privilege of guiding families and friends on personal and meaningful pilgrimages. Every tour has been a unique experience, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to be able to do something I truly love.

Researching new areas and tailoring tours to each client’s interests never feels like work. It’s a joy to bring history to life in such a personal and respectful way.

​

Over the years, I’ve guided groups of all sizes, ages, and nationalities—and I’m honoured to now welcome returning clients. Knowing that people come back means the world to me.

Creating memorable moments together and sharing stories, laughter, and sometimes tears, I often find that clients leave not just with knowledge, but as friends.
