Knowledgeable guides, excellent tour director and coach driver. I only wish they could have focused either on WWI or WWIi. I would also have liked seeing a concentration camp.
Well spaced. Organized. Educational. Lovely hotels. Great breakfasts. My only complaint was that a few days lunch was much too delayed and rushed. If up early - on bus by 8:00 which means breakfast was by 7:00 - we need to have a stop for lunch by 11:30 or 12:00 and an hour to enjoy it. The day we travelled by Eurostar to Brussels we should upon arrival immediately have had a lunch stop. No one enjoyed walking the streets of Brussels with a local guide upon arrival. We had 7 hours between getting up that morning and having a break. Enjoyed the walk with our own travel director after dinner that evening.
Interesting stops but a bit too much on WW I. Tour of Quarry too long & too much standing. No place for a break. Enjoyed Normandy & Minen Gate very much. Our tour director was awesome! He listened to us & adjusted as he could to accommodate everyone. Loved the very small group size!
Step back in time and walk in the footsteps of heroes with the Battlefields of WWI & WWII tour, an 11-day exploration from London to Paris designed for history enthusiasts and thoughtful travelers alike. This guided group trip takes you through poignant sites such as the Ypres Salient battlefields, Passchendaele Memorial, Tyne Cot Cemetery, and the Australian Fromelles Military Cemetery, where stories of valor and sacrifice come alive.
Led by knowledgeable local experts, you’ll traverse the Somme’s most significant battlefields and stand atop the 100-foot Pointe du Hoc overlooking Normandy’s D-Day landing beaches. Pay your respects at Omaha Beach’s Normandy American Cemetery, then treat yourself to a special MAKE TRAVEL MATTER®️ Experience at Les Confisseurs confectionary. As you reach Paris, stroll its elegant avenues and celebrated squares, from Place de la Concorde to the Champs-Élysées.
This tour’s unique selling point lies in its comprehensive, immersive journey through Europe’s pivotal wartime sites, combining historical insight with moments of reflection and cultural discovery—making it especially rewarding for experienced travelers, seniors, and families seeking connection to the past.
