Outstanding Guide for WWII Bastogne

Published on May, 2025

My husband was looking for the site where the 17th Airborne Division fought during the Battle of the Bulge. His father fought and was wounded in Bastogne during the Battle of Dead Man's RIdge. This unit was sent into the region ahead of Patton's arrival and suffered heavy casualties. There is not a lot of information available regarding this small division, but our guide Istvan knew about them. As we started the day, Istvan gave my husband a pin he had with the 17th's logo of the Golden Talons. We looked for more of the pins to bring home to family members, but we could not find any at any of the museums. The day tour Istvan designed for us was outstanding. It was moving experience to stand at the memorials placed in the beautiful countryside acknowledging these brave men who fought in Belgium. And our last stop was quite a surprise when he took us to see a memory wall dedicated to the 17th in General McAuliffe's Bastogne War Rooms. Thank you Istvan for creating such a memorable experience. We could not have asked for more.

An unforgettable experience

Published on Dec, 2024

This tour was by far one of the most interesting and unforgettable tours we’ve ever experienced. There were only 4 of us on the tour. Istvan, our guide, asked what we were most interested in. As we were all very familiar with the 101st airborne, he decided to add in a visit to the 101st airborne museum. It was actually one of my favorite parts of the tour. I could go on and on about what an incredible experience the whole day was. Visiting Bastogne was what prompted our trip to Belgium and Amsterdam in the first place. And this tour was by far our best experience of the entire trip. Istavan was a great guide. Not only very knowledgeable, but kind and personable.

Wonderful and inspiring tour

Published on Sep, 2024

István picked me and my son up at our hotel in Brussels. As he drove us to Bastogne he talked about the Battle to see our level of knowledge and interest. My son is a former armor officer so he started at the tank museum. We went to the main museum and monument all the while discussing the battle. He took us to several surrounding villages in order to understand what took place. We spoke about the battle as we drove from place to place. He answered every question and made sure we were satisfied. He prepared a great lunch and after our tour we stopped at a great restaurant in La Roche. We had a fun and interesting day! He is an outstanding historian and tour guide.

Easy, Quality and Tailored Experience

Published on Sep, 2024

Our day exceeded our expectations! Istvan was knowledgeable, adapted our experience based on our interests, and made sure that our experience was a great one. Each of our stops was enhanced by Istvan providing context and insights as well as Istvan making sure that we got the most out of each stop. He also listened to our group’s interests and conversations and recommended adjusting our day so that we could squeeze in seeing a Panther that was not a part of the experience which capped off a wonderful day. Even beyond the Battle of the Bulge experience we all enjoyed a fun and engaging time with Istvan through out the trip.

Wonderful Tour

The Wolf was wonderful guide and adapted the tour for a rainy day. He shared his knowledge and helped us navigate the museums with ease. We visited the American Cemetery at Henri-Chapelle as an additional stop, which everyone appreciated.
