Fantastic Tour of Verdun Battlefields

Mary_F, Oct 2025

We had a private guide pick us up at our hotel in Reims for a full day tour which included a tasty restaurant lunch. Thé guide was extremely knowledgeable and had university degrees in history snd philosophy. As he drove, he provided a wealth information about the area as well as a the sites. We are fascinated by history and we couldn’t have been more pleased by the tour or our guide. We would highly recommend this tour!!! We were in the area to tour champagne houses as well as to bike through the Champagne and Alsace regions and this was a nice accompaniment to that trip.

This tour was absolutely amazing with the best tour guide! Jerome was so knowledgeable about French history and all of our stops along the way. He even made lunch reservations for us at a local restaurant. The people there were so warm and welcoming, wonderful food and company. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone even remotely interested in history.

Jerome was amazing! We had such an educational experience with him seeing the forts. He gave so much other background information. He kept the perfect pace, and showed us very cool spots. It was the perfect experience and I would recommend to anyone who is interested in history, or really anyone to experience these places. They were so interesting!
