Tours & Prices
Orientation Tours
The Somme, Arras, Ypres & Verdun Orientation Tours are the most cost effective way of touring the battlefields with myself as your guide. The Orientation Tours are perfect for the first time visitor. We explore the main sites on each battlefield. Tours are priced as a total fee, not per person. The basic guide fee starts at 300 Euros. There can be additional costs to cover extra expenses incurred.
Family History Tours
The Family History Tours are similar to the Orientation Tours but they have the additional story of your relative included. For Family History Tours I tend to cover the basics of the particular battle in the morning which sets the scene. We would then explore your relatives story in the afternoon. The Family History Tour comes with an additional fee to cover the research involved.
Multiple Day Tours
The Multiple Day Tours are usually the Somme, Arras & Ypres Orientation Tours combined over a 3 day period. Family history can also be included on Multiple Day Tours. Multiple Day Tours can be more than one day on just one of the battlefields. The basic guide fee of 300 Euros per day will apply with additional expenses included in your final quote.
Walking Tours
My Walking Tours have been developed with the returning visitors in mind. It allows those with some knowledge of the battlefields to expand upon what they have learnt and discovered so far. The Walking Tours can be short or long, they can also be adapted to suit the first time visitor.
I'm very flexible when it comes to planning a tour, my website is simply a guide. Please contact me with any questions or ideas you have for your perfect Battlefield Tour. It's your tour and I would like to do everything I can to make it special.
