Tours in English :

 

Frontaal-tours stands for well-prepared and historically accurate tours,
brought in the most comprehensible way, all focused on the Great War.
 
No prior knowledge of the Great War is necessary, we explain all major
events and situations in the fields, where it happened,
but also bring lots of personal stories.
 
We don't provide any travel arrangements or lodgings,
but we pre-schedule a date and time to meet,
when you are in the region.
 
I can come and pick you up at your hotel or B&B,
with my minibus, or I can travel along with your
car or coach... then we go on our way,
in the Ypres Salient, to the Lys (final offensive 1918),
or to the Somme...
 
All arrangements can be made in advance :
a half-day, 1-day or a more-day trip... and the itinerary
is always completely customizable.
 
For dates, you can take a look at our agenda.
(for your help : "volzet" means "no more places available")
 
All proposed dates are in weekends,
as we do have a regular job next to this project.   ; )
 
I am always willing to do some thorough research on
certain battalions, ancestors, places, regiments,
nationalities, and to focus on these.
