Superb, passionate and very knowledgable Andre (an ex-wounded serviceman himself) brought the corporate and individual stories to life; not least the fact that in one phase 18 men died for each square metre of muddy Flanders fields. Should be mandatory for all school children. More

a great tour, it brings history alive, and makes you think ?? about what is realy important in life. More

A group of 13 colleagues did the trip on the 28th April (a wet and cold day which in some ways added to the experience) we met Jacques Ryckebosch who guided us. We have done tours before without a guide, but our experience with Jacques was excellent, his knowledge, enthusiasm and friendly manner made the visit so much better. He... More

We contacted Genevra beforehand with information about where our grandfathers had fought, so she organised our tour around the sites that were relevant to our family history.

We took the 4 hour tour with Genevra, a most knowlegeable guide and a lovely lady. Came away with a great overview of what happened on the Salient all excellently explained. Definitely would recommend this tour. More

So impressed. He made our tour so... More

I had a tour in late April 2012 with 12 other colleagues and friends. The tour guide (Jacques) was both very informative and enjoyable - frequently taking us to places "off the beaten track" to show us areas / items of interest that were of relevance. In previous years we have toured as a group without a tour guide -... More

Very professional booking process, with clear instructions and very prompt reply. Both Northern and Southern Salient Tours were extremely well researched and were well balanced, providing a very clear and well explained overall view point from both sides. Battle strategy, personal accounts and personal histories brought the events to life and were communicated in a very passionate and respectfull way.... More
