Amazing Battle of the Bulge tour. Visiting Bastogne and hearing the stories on location made the history come alive. Highly recommended!
The Bastogne tour became one of the highlights of our holiday in Belgium. Mavliud made the history understandable and meaningful, and the transport was comfortable throughout the day.
I booked this experience for my father, who has always been interested in the Second World War. Nick was patient, knowledgeable and happy to answer every question he had.
