World War II sites in Italy

Hi Jan,
I work at Select Italy and we have put together custom, private, guided excursions to various WWII locations in Italy, in various areas. Was there a specific region you were interested in exploring? A type of sight? Some of Adrian's suggestions are also very interesting, depending on what type of tour you're looking for.
Please feel free to contact us should you want more info. info@selectitaly.com

I don't know a tour operator, but I know some places in Tuscany that you may be interested in visiting.
In this part of Italy there was the Gotic Line and there lots of interesting places. There are also a lot of places, museums and other informations about the partisans and the italian people that collaborated to liberate Italy.

To prepair your trip I can also suggest a map about the second war in Italy "Italia 1940-45" that you can also found on the web-site of a bookshop specialized in Travel http://www.stella-alpina.com/prodotti/7978/index.php (I don't remember if it is only in Italian)...
