Overview

Come join me on a tour of the glorious history of the American army.
The Ardennes offensive of Winter 1944, and the famous battle of the Bulge.
This interactive tour tells the big stories of battle, tactics, commanders, and the small ones of the soldiers, their daily routine, their fear, freezing cold in the foxholes, and wet nights in the tranches.

Travelers often customize these tour locations, adding battles sites of their past relatives who fought in the Ardennes offensive.

A private tour with me will give you the freedom and flexibility; if you wish to see something out of the route, skip others, spend more time here and less there; its all about your choice and comfort in a new car, offering bottled water and chocolate tasting.
