I must say it is an incredible surprise to find a business that not only promises big, but delivers even bigger!
I knew I was on a special tour, when on our first day in England, we were met by st Airborne reinactors. I knew it was special when in Holland, we climbed up in the steeple of a church used by Major Winters to see German troop locations. I knew it was special when we went on the guided tour of underground bunkers at Berchtesgaden. None of this was advertised nor promised.
