The Western Front tour was a huge success from all points of view: the sites, the itinerary, the accom-modations, the transport, and most especially the first-class guiding.

It was a great trip. My continued study of the war will be enriched by having seen the land, the seemingly endless cemeteries, the monuments, and the evidence of the terrible struggles in the woods and farm lands.

Thank you for the wonderfully well organized tour of the Western Front. I guess I am now technically "hooked." I enjoyed the trip immensely.

I'm not sure I knew exactly what to expect, but for someone who has always been quite interested in history, an on site college course compressed into two weeks was quite an exciting experience. I cannot imagine how a tour of this nature could be done any better.

I thought that I was fairly familiar with the history of the fighting on the Western Front in the Great War, but truly that is not so. Your knowledge of the minutest details really helped to lend a special quality of clarity and immediacy to events that took place so long ago.

I can't thank you enough for the Western Front tour. You are not a tour director, but a passionate leader. Your guide book is a treasure. I have read it from cover to cover several times. Please include us in any future tours.
