Relive WWII: Unforgettable Battle of the Bulge Expedition

We were so excited to schedule this trip! And Patrick did not disappoint! We could have spent the week with him and still not have heard all the interesting things he was sharing with us about The Battle of the Bulge. Because it was a full day tour, there could have been lots of quiet time in the van, but we were all able to enjoy each other‘s company and the time passed quickly. If you have an opportunity to take this tour with Patrick, seize it!

This was a very special trip for us. And Levi made it even more so for us. He customized our visits to the battlefields on which my father fought in WWII. Unbelievably dedicated to fulfilling our request. His knowledge and skill is above excellent. This tour even without the customization is well worth it!

Patrick was our guide and Levay was the driver. This tour is the bomb! These two gentlemen went above and beyond to ensure our experience was one we would always remember. We left no stone unturned by seeing where the Battle of Ardennes was fought in December, 1944. We saw the foxholes, & the wooded area where the bullets killed so many men. We spent time in the Bastogne War Museum. We saw many German Tanks on display, which were not reproductions but the real deal. One of the members of our group, her Father was a US paratrooper in the Battle of the Bulge with the 509. They located a marker which referenced the 509. This was very emotional. But to find a marker depicting his battalion had been there almost 80 years earlier! WOW

Our guide Fabiano was superior. Very detailed, very clear, very caring. He did a lot of research on my father's journey through Bastogne and the Battle of the Bulge and made the day very personal and special for us.

Terrific experience, great guide. Spent all day enjoying the sites and information provided. Highly recommend.

Fabiano was great. Well informed about the Battle of the Bulge. Took us places that we would not have considered or found on our own, and I doubt many others guides would either. Had a great experience at the Chateau which served as McAuliffe’s HQ - me the current owner, who was fantastic giving us access we didn’t expect. Saw a lot of powerful sites during the tour. Can’t recommend Fabiano enough.

Hands down, one of the best tour guides we have worked with. Patrick picked us up promptly at our hotel, and customized our stops. He was engaging, full of amazing historical stories and we learned so much about the Battle of the Bulge. Patrick worked tirelessly to keep us entertained and well fed. I cannot recommend this tour more. And at the end of our trip to Europe, I asked our youngest son what his favorite part was....and his answer was the tour with Patrick.

Patrick Andrea was an excellent guide! He brought many interesting anecdotes with his historical information. He made the tour!

Our guide's name was Patrick. He was excellent. He interacted with the entire family, and especially our son who loves history and studying WWII. Patrick was outgoing and engaging, and he shared a lot of knowledge with us. He went out of his way to accommodate us, and he answered all of our questions. He encouraged us to take our time, and even when it was getting late in the day, he did not hurry us. He shared a lot of information with us, and he gave us some really good advice about what we could do when we left Brussels and continued our travels to The Netherlands. I would say Patrick went out of his way to make sure we had a pleasant day, and he wanted us to have a great time on the rest of our vacation, too. There is a lot to see and experience on the Battle of Bastogne tour. Even though it was a long day and we travelled quite a distance, the day went by quickly. I was a little concerned that someone would really show up at our lodging and pick us up at the appointed hour, but my concern was needless. It was really nice to be picked up where we were staying and dropped off there at the conclusion of the tour. I cannot compliment Patrick enough. He was willing to answer all of questions, and it seemed like we could converse about almost anything. He was very good in dealing with our two 16-year-olds. One was very interested, and the other not so much, but she still very much enjoyed the day. I am sure we will remember Patrick for a long time, and if we get the opportunity to take another Battle of the Bulge tour, I would ask for Patrick. His driving was safe, and he was extremely familiar with the subject matter and territory we toured! Take the tour -- it's worth it!

Andrea took us on a full day Battle of the Bulge Tour. While we didn’t have enough time to do the full tour, Andrea was super accommodating of our schedule, and packed as much as possible into one long day. He was so great with my son, who had so many questions! He was super knowledgeable about so many small technical details of this battle, his English was great, and he was a great conversationalist as well. Wholeheartedly recommended for anyone looking for a super knowledgeable guide!
