My wife and I returned from our Western Front Tour that culminated with the Anzac Day Dawn Service on the 25th and the following day 26th April 2008 Anzac Memorial Service both at Villers_Bretonneux. I would like you to know just how professionally our tour was conducted. We believe that our Tour Leader was exemplary in his knowledge of the battlefields we visited and the way in which he cared and conducted the tour for all who participated. Our tour leader was joined by an Army Historian in Roger Lee, who has an encyclopedic mind in all things Army and what happened on the Western front and no doubt beyond that. They were formidable as a team and made the Great War come alive before our very eyes in what was an altogether unforgettable and moving experience.

The war historian was absolutely excellent for this tour and brought the whole ANZAC experience to life in a wonderful way, that was understandable. This tour was the highlight of our 6 weeks away. Getting to and from the ANZAC Day service easily was great too.

Thank you for organizing such a wonderful tour and ensuring that we were able visit the Dernancourt War Cemetery and visit the grave of Bernice’s uncle, which we did. We placed an Australian flag and poppies on the grave, took photos and video taped the visit.
Overall, we felt the tours were excellent and value for its cost was reasonable. Our tour guide was outstanding. His military knowledge, the information that he provided and his presentation was excellent. At all times we felt safe and were kept fully informed. His leadership was outstanding.
Our hotels were of a very high standard as was our coach and driver.
This was our 11th overseas tour we have done and regard this tour as being outstanding – everything went perfectly. We are telling all our friends about this tour. We are delighted to be able to endorse it.
Once again, thanks to Albatross for such a wonderful and memorable experience.

I have recently returned from your Essential ANZAC tour and wish to place in writing my sincere appreciation in the professionalism of which the tour was conducted. I was unable to complete a post tour evaluation form, if I had I would have marked everything ten out of ten and that includes your Brisbane office, I only wish every other office I have cause to deal with was as quick and responsive. Thank you for the wonderful trip, the memories of which will stay with me forever.

Just to let you know that we really enjoyed the "All Quiet on the Western Front" Tour. The selection of hotels was very good. The coach was very comfortable and the driver amazing maneuvering the huge coach down cobbled narOrganisation for the Dawn Service went like clockwork. A truly wonderful experience.
We just wanted to thank you very much for all your hard work and thoroughness with our bookings. It made our travels very enjoyable.
