My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The day is perfect, not too much, not too little. The sites, the food, the timing.... faultless. Nathan's knowledge is quite incredible and he goes out of his way to make sure that al your questions are answered. I thoroughly recommend this tour, especially with Nathan.

Our Canadian group of eight friends just finished the Battlefield tour with Nathan. He was very informative, an excellent guide. The tour is well worth the price. The museums he took us to were top notch and interactive. He brought the horrors of WWI to life. The lunch was delicious....loved the beer! The van was comfortable and warm. It was... More

A tour that is well worth its price. This is one everyone who visits the area should do.! Nathan’s knowledge of the historical and political background to WW1, along with his geographical and cultural perspective helped us more fully understand the events in context with the land. He provides an excellent day in the small mini bus with a completely... More

I took the tour of the Ypres battlefields this weekend. Nathan, our tour guide provided the historical background and the actual battlefields provided the rest. I tour of the Flanders Field Museum in Ypres was included, along with a sit-down meal in town. It was a moving experience and one not to be missed for anyone interested in WW1.

This tour is not to be missed in any visit to Belgium. There are only 8 people on each tour in a large van so there is lots of opportunity for questions. It also allowed Nathan, the guide and owner, to personalize the tour to accommodate the interest of our group in Canadian battlefields, cemeteries and memorials from the WW1... More

From start to finish Nathan gave a detailed running commentary of events leading up to the Great War. His knowledge was immense and informative. It was interesting to... More

This is a very well organised tour of the WW1 Battlefields - we found the day extremely interesting and Nathan's expert knowledge and advice added to the occasion. It was of particular interest to me to visit the Tyne Cot memorial to see the memorial with my Uncle's name on it and also visit the site of the Battle for... More
