Both my grandfathers were there and Nathan included for us the London Scottish memorial. I mentioned Gallipoli and next day (his Menin Gate tour) he showed his books on this and the London Scottish in Mesopotamia with General Allenby. You name it, he knows it. Only eight people and a most engaging man with European history not taught in school.... More

Nathan's Last Post tour was a treat. An incredibly knowledgable guide who conveyed an enormous amount of information throughout the entire journey and at the scheduled stops. Along the way we stopped a couple more times to be shown other items and places of interest. The Mercedes minibus is very clean and comfortable. Overall, highly recommended!

Nathan collected me at my hotel and the history tour started. Nathan has a enormous amount of local knowledge about WW1 and this was very helpful for me as I was looking for sites that my Granddad saw active service. The tour started with a talk about events leading to WW1 while we were driving from Bruges to Ieper in... More

We travelled with Nathan and a group of 7 other tourists paying 65 Euro per person. We were transported in a comfortable Mercedes 8 seater van. Nathan was quick to respond to our email request. He picked us up promptly at our hotel and we set off for a big day. We do not enjoy travelling on big buses, so... More

Nathan picked us up right on time at our hotel. Eight-person minibus, so the tour was very personalized. He is very friendly and so knowledgeable. Many stops, all of them fascinating, creating a complete picture of the futile carnage in Flanders in WWI. Very nice lunch in a small cafe in Ypres. Lots to see, and he runs a tight... More

Nathan guides up to 8 visitors in his van on a day long tour of the Flanders area, with detailed commentary along the way. The amount of Information is overwhelming, so if you are already WW1 knowledgable, this tour will be a real treat. We saw many sites, museums, monuments, cemeteries and artifacts. And looking over this beautiful bucolic countryside,... More

If you are in Brugge and plan on the day tour of Flanders Field, plan to go with Nathan. Only 8 people in the van and Nathan is a virtual walking encyclopedia of World War I battles. We are certainly enjoyed the tour. We'd highly recommend him

This was a brilliant day trip, that is a must for anyone with an interest in the Battlefields of World War One. Nathan picked us up from our hotel promptly and from the minute the tour started, we were given a comprehensive and balanced view of the events that influenced the outbreak of WW1. We were taken to all the... More

I thoroughly recommend this tour as a way to seeing and understanding what took place at Yrpes. Nathan is passionate about the history and has an amazing knowledge of the background of events that took place. Being a small operator meant he was able to take us places where big tour groups are not able to go and his local... More
