Are you looking for an English-speaking guide for the Verdun battlefields? Can your WWI and WWII Battlefields tour be arranged to include a Verdun stop?

Verdun is not included in the itinerary for this tour. If you wish to visit Verdun, this will need to be arranged independently. You may choose to visit during your free time on that day, or, if an Optional Experience is offered but you decide not to participate, you may use that time to explore Verdun on your own.

Will this tour will be offered again anytime soon?

May we know your preferred departure date for us to provide you a quote.

What if any single supplement is required? Do you match up single (same gender) travellers to avoid the supplement?

Single Supplement: If you're traveling solo and prefer your own room throughout the trip, we offer single supplement. This ensures you have private accommodations. Room Sharing: We understand that some travelers prefer not to pay a single supplement. On many of our tours, we offer a twin share room option where we match solo travelers of the same gender to share a room, thus avoiding the single supplement fee. This option is subject to availability and requires that you are comfortable sharing accommodations with a fellow traveler. The price for our WWI and WWII Battlefields departing on 05-Oct-2024 costs US$6,745.00 per person based on a twin room, while twin share room cost US$4,125.00.
