Description

Relive one of World War II’s most epic but dramatic chapters on this full-day private Battle of the Bulge & General Patton Tour, departing comfortably from Brussels via private high-end transportation.

Head then to Ettelbruck, known proudly as “Patton Town”, home to monuments and stories honoring the General’s liberation of Luxembourg (not once but twice!). From there, travel deeper into the Ardennes stopping by the battlefield at Schumannseck and vist the General Irzyk Monument, a lesser-known but powerful site marking the scene of an intense tank battle — a reminder of the brutal fighting that took place in this forested region. Dive in Bastogne, the symbolic heart of the Battle of the Bulge, liberated after 6 days of German siege by General Patton 3rd Army. Visit McAuliffe Square, named after Brigadier General Anthony McAuliffe, and relive his legendary “Nuts!” reply during the German siege.

The tour reaches an unforgettable climax in Foy, where you will walk in the footsteps of Easy Company of the 101st Airborne Division — the heroes immortalized in Band of Brothers.
