Wonderful tour of the WWI battlefields and monuments - It was a wonderful tour of many of the battlefields and monuments from WWI. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and provided us with commentary along the way and handed out a battlefield map for us to follow along. The evening ceremony at the Menen Gate was a particularly moving experience and was a fitting end to the tour

Flanders Fields tour from Bruges - Very knowledgeable guide. Lots of very interesting info learned about WW1. The man couldn’t pronounce Iron which was funny. He also had a moan when we were waiting to be picked up at 11, as stated in the email but he said that was when we were due to leave. We were there by 10:50 and if he wanted us there earlier it should have stated this info on the booking info. He also said there were no toilets from 11am till 13:30 but there was one on the coach. Were we not allowed to use that one? My wife has anxiety and that really worried her. Other than that all good and thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

Informative Flanders Fields tour - A long day but we thoroughly enjoyed hearing about those who fought in WW1. Very moving especially with the playing of the Last Post at Menin Gates at the end of the day. A simple but delicious lunch was also included. Mainly Australians on the tour. Would highly recommend.

Don't miss this - Great tour and extremely knowledgeable guide. It would probably have been impossible to do this tour on one's own, let alone receive the interest information from the guide. I'm sorry I forgot his name - the tour was Sunday, June 23 and he was excellent.

WWI Rememberence Tour - Let Us Not Forget WWI - Very good tour by a local Belgium who had relatives who were alive during WWI. I would suggest this tour for those who want to understand more of the suffering and struggles of the war to end all wars. My suggestion is that 11 hours or so is too long of a day. I think you can trim down the tour to about 5-6 hours and still get a good feel of that it is all about. Thanks for a great tour!
