A lovely and moving experience led by Jacques who obviously was totally in love with his job, and also devoted to keeping alive the memories and upkeeping the respect due to all our servicemen who served their country - especially during the First World War. Remember to load up with questions - you will always think of some AFTER the... more

It is now a year since my family spent 2 days with the amazing staff of FBT, and we still continue to talk about the experience with anybody who is willing to listen. Jacques and Gen breathe life and passion into thier subject ,and it becomes obvious right from the start of the day that these guys are not just... more

I spent four nights at the Ariane Hotel in Ypres, and booked a full day tour of the Somme, and two half day tours of the Ypres Salient with Flanders battlefield tours in early September. I'd been planning to do a Great War tour for a long time, and Jacques and Gen at Flanders Battlefield Tours made the trip unforgettable.... more

My partner and I had previously done the North Salient tour with FBT and enjoyed it so much that we booked a private tour of the Somme the following summer. We had a very memorable day with Jacques, ever an entertaining and informative guide. His passion and enthusiasm for his subject really shine through and I now have such an... more

In the words of my 11yr old grandson "That tour was AWESOME!" I had only booked a short morning tour because I didn't think he'd last the distance for a whole day but what an experience. Jacques was energetic in passing on all he knew about the WW1 and believe me, he knew just about everything there is to know.... more

The Flanders Battlefield Tour with Genevra & Jacques is a "must do". Genevra made this time in history come alive with her fascinating dialogue and tour. We quite honestly knew very little about the Ypres Salient and its impact on this town. Viewing the Tyne Cot Cemetery and hearing the commentary on the number of lives lost made such an... more

My friend and I recently had the opportunity of going on the Grand Tour with Jacques as our guide. What a knowledgeable and brilliant teacher he proved to be! We learned so much and have now been fired up with enthusiasm to find out more about our relatives who fought for the freedoms we now know today. Jacques passion and... more

Jacques and Genevra's tours of Ypres and of the Somme are truly memorable. I have recently returned from a day tour of the Somme with Jacques and have previously taken a tour of Ypres battlefields. He's an extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide - I learn so much! I am eternally grateful to him for enabling me to see some specific... more

Flanders Battlefield Tours was a wonderful experience and a must for anyone who only has one, or two days to spare in Ieper (Ypres). My wife and I took the "Grand Tour" of the battlefields and we felt like we were being guided by a friend, rather than a tour operator. There are not more than eight people in each... more
