Battlefield vet & traveller gives us the thumbs up

".. always wanted to do a battlefield tour & after the first one in 2005, I was hooked!!"

Our tour manager & driver make the perfect pairing

"I asked Connection Tours to help me plan a side trip to D-Day from Paris. All was in place - but then my driver became ill. I didn't know what we were going to do. For Ian [Connection Tours Director], it was easy. He flew over, hired a van, met the group, and guided the tour himself. At no extra cost to me or the group!"
