A truly wonderful day for historians or just people with an interest in the Great War, whether it be personal or to educate themselves on our forebears fight for peace and freedom. Everyone should be aware of the challenges of these wonderful men and women who fought and to see the respect that our French friends have for Australia is truly beautiful. We had a mixed group of Aussies and Newfoundlanders and our wonderful guide Matthew was able to keep us all interested in both countries involvement and losses during the war, which wouldn’t be easy. It was a very long day but well worth the time and money. We couldn’t have had a better guide than Matthew who was very knowledgeable, personable and entertaining and even had us singing to Frank Sinatra and INXS Highway to Hell as we rounded the Arc de Triumph. Very appropriate. A really great day. Highly recommended.

The trip was excellent and offered real insight into the events of that time, providing a day of reflection. Our guide knew the history well and was able to answer most questions.

I cant recommend this tour highly enough. Matthew was an excellat tour leader, his knowledge of WW1, in particular the Austrlians and their involvement was amazing, he has truelly found his calling. If you get a chance to do this tour please do, you will not regret it
