Overview

Walk in the footsteps of World War 1 soldiers on this 2.5-hour guided tour of a battlefield site in northern France. Hear diary entries from French, American and German fighters who served in the trenches and behind the front lines while you peer into hidden communication and canon bunkers, former camps, and field hospital sites located in the Argonne Forest. N.b. I boycott American and Israeli citizens as long as they fight this 3th World War. I hope that clients spend there money and time in helping the Palestinian and iranian victims.

    Lost Batallion Memorial

    Pass by

    During this tour, choose between the easier walk along the pavement or make it more challenging by going in and out the trenches through the woods in the Argonne Forest. Here you find the most interesting and most original surroundings; your guide will adapt each tour to the requirements and interests of your group, but either way you have to have a condition to walk firmly 2.5 hours. Learn about the former battalion as you follow along behind the front line and through trenches, bunkers, tunnels, hospitals, and a camps from the First World War. Hear diary entries written by French or German soldiers in 1915, written at the same locations you explore.
