Lernen der Schlachten des Ersten Weltkriegs in Nordfrankreich und Belgien

rso510, Jan. 2020

Ich habe viel über die Schlachten des Ersten Weltkriegs in Nordfrankreich und Belgien gelernt. Diese Tour ist gut organisiert und der Führer, Mr. Bedford, ist mit den Details der Schlachten und der Geschichte der Schlachten bestens vertraut. Ich habe erlebt, dass Narben eines vor hundert Jahren geführten Krieges noch heute zu spüren sind. Ich kann diese Tour nur empfehlen.

Antwort des Veranstalters, Feb. 2020

Thank you for your review of your Ypres battlefield day tour, we are glad you enjoyed your time with us.

Great insight into Australia’s involvement in action on the Western Front

Douglas_M, Okt. 2023

Covered a lot of the battlefields in one long day. Good commentary from guide. Had extensive British military experience and long experience as guide. Group of eight. Guide drove very carefully and safely down little backroads of Flanders. Stopped at so many places of significance to Australians.

A memorable experience

Rob_J, Sept. 2023

Thanks to Nigel for making this a memorable tour. Despite an initial hiccup with pickup due to Viator not passing on our pickup information till the last minute Nigel went out of his way to make our tour successful. Thanks too to Jackie for dropping us back to Lille.

Best part of day

William_J, Aug. 2023

Best experience of the day,Menin gate last post. Did enjoy visting the various New Zealand sites/cemeteries.

Great tour; great guide

JudyT, Juni 2023

Great tour with guide Jackie who was very knowledgeable. The information she provided was thorough but not just facts. There were interesting anecdotes and stories that gave it a personal quality. Two couples on our tour had relatives who had died in the area’s fighting and Jackie had done research and took them to the locations where their relatives had perished. It was very touching for all of us.

An amazing and heartfelt Tour.

Linda_M, Aug. 2022

This was such a special day. Rod made such an effort to take us to the place of the last known position of our relative. And to help us recite the 'Ode' at the Tyne Cot memorial, where he is named. And to place a Poppy. (Thank you Polly) Kev's mother was so touched with the video we sent her. Thankyou to both Rod and Quentin, for your knowledge, respect and care of the history, and for sharing it with us. Thank you for your Service.

Antwort des Veranstalters, Aug. 2022

Thank you Linda, I do enjoy the research side of our tours and I pleased we were able to make it special not only for you but for Kev's mother also. I feel we all have a responsibility to take care of history, so thank you for taking the time to pay your respects.

Leslie S, Nov. 2017

We had a wonderful long day with Rod,certainly learnt heaps. Loads of time for photographs,reflection,toliet stops,conversation and a fresh tasty lunch all provided. Bus comfortable and warm. Especially loved the last post on the trip home very emotional. For Aussie it was certainly meaningful.Would highly recommend this tour for all ages . Thanks again.

Our tour was with Battleground...

HUGH C, Juni 2017

Our tour was with Battleground Tours, We were collected from our Arras accommodation by our guide Denis in a comfortable 8 seater van. The mid-May weather was overcast with rainy periods which helped set the scene for the day. Being the only passengers in the van gave my wife and I Denis's full attention and we were able to range over a whole range of subjects during the driving between sites. As befits the nature of the the static battlefields of WWI we had frequent stops at the cemeteries, trenches, emplacements and memorials including the 1914 Christmas truce soccer match, criss-crossing the battle-lines throughout the day. As the day drew to a close we arrived at Ypres, had dinner and then attended the Menin Gate ceremony at 8pm. Following this Denis drove us home, thus completing a very interesting and enjoyable 12 hour day packed with memories. We both felt that Denis' commentaries on the events and actions that influenced the course of the war were very even-handed and fair. Our only suggestion would be for the provision on an individual basis, of a map, A-4 sized, showing both the route and sites for the day, and also with battle lines, possibly several to show the various advances and retreats, very similar to the cast bronze maps displayed at some of the sites, to aid in understanding and orientation. The maps as shown on Googlemaps, with topography would be a very useful starting point for this, since much of the actions were related to the taking of high ground or crossing rivers. If they were laminated it would be so much the better since they could be marked up with marker pens. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable day.

Gregory P, Juni 2017

My wife and I had a fantastic tour. Rod the owner of the business and our guide was a great host. His wealth of knowledge, military background and obvious compassion to those who had falllen provided us with a better understanding of the war. The commitment by the city of Ypres with the daily Menin Gate ceremony and playing of the Last Post will be a lasting memory. We were joined on the tour by two other Australians who laid wreaths on the Menin Gate and this was very moving. Rod and his vehicle were both extremely well presented and we highly recommend this tour to others.

Martha K, Dez. 2016

Having a private guide is the way to go, and Jackie was a fantastic guide. She was able to personalize the tour for us as Americans while explaining all the historical events of this region. The museums we visited are excellent. The Last Post ceremony is unbelievably moving dare you to experience and stay dry-eyed. A long day, but worth the effort -- you'll learn a lot.

mary m, Juli 2016

it was excellent--Denis,the tour guide was informative ,and helpful--He helped my husband track down his relative,who had sadly died at the Third Battle of Ypres--the Ceremony at the Menin Gate was very moving--we had thought originally that it was expensive 400 euro for 2 for a Day trip--but afterwards agreed that it was worth every penny--and we have recommended this tour Company ,to several friends already

Mark_S, Mai 2016

Great tour by people with not only an exhaustive knowledge of the location and history but an obvious passion and commitment to sharing that history and the stories of those who fought and died here. Rod's military background and family connections add another dimension to the tour that few could possibly match. Certainly highly recommended, comfortable vehicle, pleasant lunch, local knowledge - fantastic day.
