Friendly and knowledgeable tour of Ypres area - It was an amazing tour. Roger was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The 3.5 hour went by quickly with lots to see, but he always made sure we had time on our own to explore the sites by ourselves. We never felt rushed. If you only have time for one tour of the area, this is the one for you. Thank you, Roger!

Great day in Flanders field! - I came along to this tour by myself and couldn’t have felt more welcome straight away. Roger as well as the other people on the tour were all great people and I had a terrific day wandering around significant sites whilst getting an informed from an expert. No questions was too silly for Roger either, so ask away!!

Awesome Tour - This was an awesome tour. Roger is very knowledgeable and friendly guide. I learned so much about the experiences of the Commonwealth troops during the Great War, especially the Canadians.

Great half day tour - Great tour of local Ypres salient. Hits highlights without being too long. Great communication and easy pickup at the train station. One less star because van was a little cramped in back but not really an issue in the grand scheme of things. :)
