The guide was excellent and friendly and allowed us to make the tour of places we were interested in.j
We simply enjoyed this tour and our guide Sven! It was a part of our 3 days tour around Belgium and we booked directly with the company. But we could not find this particular tour so we decided to leave a review here. The organisation was very good - thanks to Valerie. They took care of our hotels as well. We will come back and book again with this company
My dad served in the U.S. Navy during WWII, so visiting the Battle of the Bulge sites was something really personal for me. Walking through those places was emotional, and I’ll never forget it. Our guide, Sebastian, was amazing – knowledgeable, respectful, and very thoughtful. The whole day ran smoothly: pickup and drop-off in Brussels were on time, the car was comfortable, and the company even reached out before the trip to ask about our interests and special requests. I’m really grateful for how well everything was handled. This was a special experience, and I’d definitely book with them again.
My father served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. and walking through the battlefields of the Bulge was an emotional experience I’ll never forget. Our guide Sebastian was incredibly thoughtful, sensitive, and knowledgeable. The logistics were seamless. Pickup and drop‑off in Brussels were on time, the vehicle was comfortable, and everything felt well-organized The company contacted us in advance, asking what were our preferences and particular places of interest. We appreciate all the help and will use your service in the future.
