5.00Exellent overview of Warerloo. Picked up at the hotel, driven to relevant sites and given exellent explanation of the events leading up to the battle. Valentin was engaging and knowlageabe. I recommend this tour to anyone interested in a 4 hour introduction of the battle at Waterloo.

5.00Having spoken about the Battle of Waterloo at school, I couldn’t miss this trick. The care is excellent: the guide picked me up from the hotel and the road is quick to do.

1.00We did the tour to Waterloo. Two days earlier I was contacted by the organizer by phone and the contact details of the guide were provided to me. I gave the ages of all the participants. It made a very good impression. We were picked up from the hotel on time. The guide, David, was very friendly and also very well prepared. He has been trying to make the trip professional all the time. The only and unfortunately serious problem was the car we drove around in for the 4 hours. Instead of being in a comfortable car as described, we were crammed like sardines in a Dacia Jogger. We were a group of 5 adults plus driver and guide, so 7 adults in a car that was not suitable for it. Despite all the preparation and expertise of the guide, we could not enjoy the excursion at all. On the contrary, we had to focus on whether we would get back to the hotel safely and soundly. We had so little space we couldn't even buckle up. Since I reported the topic to the tour operator, he received information that the trip was carried out according to the plan. In summary, he did not realize that something had obviously gone wrong. If the trip is offered in the quality as it was done with us, I can not recommend it at all, but advise everyone to book the trip. Too bad it could have been such a nice trip.
