To find out more about these see our tour for the 296th Combat Engineers - we first arranged one for them in 1994 and again in 1999. The other group of people we find are now coming forward are relations of veterans. The veteran has died without ever saying much about his experiences and, after his death, looking through his effects the children and grandchildren find documents, medals, photographs and letters which have been stored since the war. They are interested in finding out more about their father and come to me to guide their footsteps. We are always willing to help in designing tours for similar groups or individuals.
Many people are happy to travel across Europe by coach with organised groups.
These include 'seven countries in fourteen days' or 'five countries in ten days' tours. These are usually arranged through Trafalgar or Globus in the United States. These suit people because they do not have to worry about moving from one destination to another on their own, changing trains or making their own decisions. They are moved from hotel to hotel and from site to site by bus with all decisions being made by a courier with the party. There is nothing wrong with these tours but choice is eliminated and you are unable to deviate from the group movements - even if they do not interest you.
