TimeTrails in Brittany - Guided Archaeological Tours

Welcome to Timetrails in Brittany

Hello, I'm Philip.  Welcome to TimeTrails in Brittany. I've been running TimeTrails in Brittany tours since 2021 and, with each year that passes, the tours are becoming more and more popular with English-speaking visitors from all over the world. I have had a passion for the archaeology of the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age since my childhood and I have finally been able to set up home in the heart of one of Europe's richest archaeological landscapes.TimeTrials in Brittany tours are about sharing just a few of these landscapes with you and helping you to look at them through the eyes of an archaeologist. Since starting time trails I've now increased the number of different tour itineraries to six and I'm always looking out for new and exciting tours to add.  To find out more about my tours, simply select each one from the navigation menu.

Most of the site are those I do not visit on my tours but I hope that future visitors to Brittany find them useful.

Here are a few reviews of my Pink Granite Coast and Locminé Loop tours. I send my thanks to everybody who has taken the time to get back to me with their feedback. I hope to see you all again one day. Jon from Bournemouth said:- “I recently took my family on a handful of Time Trails excursions in Brittany, and genuinely want to go back for more. The trails were very enjoyable, accessible and informative. Phil Dunn beautifully blends wit and knowledge into his walks and talks which bring the many landscapes and ancient stones to life. His style mixes story, fact and honest speculation in a way that seems to erode time. You feel as if you are witnessing the creation and use of these mysterious structures. Mystery though soon disappears and is replaced by an admiration for our ancestors skill and dedication. and simple awe of how and why they were placed and that they survive. Our two teenagers were totally captivated, and unleashed a range of questions, all of which were answered wit...
