During your guided tour in Bastogne, you will see sights like the MacAuliffe Square, the Patton monument, Saint-Peters church, the Belgian Barracks and a display of WWII vehicles, the Mardasson memorial and the foxholes of the Easy Company. Afterward, you will have free time for lunch (not included) and some shopping before we heading to the American Cemetery in Hamm/Luxembourg.
This is an educational experience not to be missed!

First we will drive to a small village near Bastogne which is elaborately restored to display fortified positions, WWII gear and equipment, movement of armored vehicles, reconnaissance progressions, skirmishes between opposing forces. In the afternoon there will be reenactment of combats between German and US forces in the surrounding woods and fields. Just like Verdun or Waterloo, it is the biggest show in Europe depicting the Battle of the Bulge. A huge historical fresco realized by hundreds of volunteers, comprising of 250 reenactors coming from all across Europe and the United States, on the precise location of the Battle. A huge theater play that will take you back 75 years ago in the terrible chaos of the last major German offensive of the Second World War.

After we visited this historical site we will head towards Bastogne where you will have a chance to visit the small Christmas market in front of St. Peters Church. You can also walk to the Bastogne Barracks. But make sure to be back in time to see the Military Vehicle Parade displayed on the main street followed by a static show. If you are not that much into parades you can also get back on the bus which will take you to the War Museum which is worth a visit. There you can also meet veterans and purchase military books at the book fair. All around the museum there will also be WWII reconstructions.
