•

→ Research & Preparation

• Finding the Story: Before the tour, I can help analyze military files to locate exactly where your ancestor fought, was wounded, or is buried.

• The « Then and Now »: I use digital trench maps and war diaries to pinpoint the exact locations on the modern landscape, bringing the history to life on a personal level.

•

→ On the Day: A Journey of Remembrance

• Graveside Visits: We prioritize visits to specific cemeteries or memorials to allow time for private reflection and wreath-laying.

• Off the Beaten Track: We take you to the lesser-known bunkers, trench lines, and village ruins that played a part in your family’s specific history.

• Contextual History: While focusing on your ancestor, we also explain the broader battle context to understand the conditions they faced.

Return: Drop-off at your hotel or railway station.
