This tour was excellent from the driver to the tour guide. The guide was personable, knowledgeable and made the whole experience something to remember!
However, dealing with Viator to receive a refund for our first Flanders Field scheduled tour has been a nightmare. Although the tour for two was canceled well before the 24 hour deadline, and a cancelation e-mail was received, our refund has not! After several inquiries, it appears the company refunded the money to the wrong person. This was not a small sum of money. The company just keeps telling us to contact our bank! How will that help, we never received any money.
All I can say is don’t book anything through Trip Advisor that uses Viator!

Thank you Carl. This trip was a pilgrimage for my mum, who had lost 2 uncles in WW1, and Carl brought the war, its context and my great uncles' likely experiences to life. He is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject and took us on a bespoke tour including Essex farm, Yorkshire trenches, langemark cemetery, Tyne cot, messines, Berkshire cemetery, peace Island, meningate and many more spots. His English is impeccable. I can't recommend this man highly enough. Thank you, Carl for making our experience so special xx

Six day guided cycling tour of Western front WW1 battlefields and memorials with Carl Ooghe of Salient Tours.
Carl was outstanding. Prompt, flexible (we wanted to see a particular memorial), patient (11 year old son on trip) and immensely knowledgeable. His English was also impeccable. We would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking battlefield tours, whether walking, cycling or touring.

We were absolutely thrilled with every aspect of this experience. Carl's knowledge, thoughtfulness and passion for the subject, made this a life-changing experience for our whole family. ( Two adults with three teenage children). If we had tried to make this trip without Carl, we would have missed so many sites and never had an overview of the situation. Everything we hoped for and more.

Outstanding guide dealing w/ a very difficult subject; can't be done w/o one. Carl's erudition and enthusiasm for the subject hugely additive. Bring boots for hiking in ditches, tunnels etc., and ranger.

We spent 2 days with Carl in September 2019 and it was the most amazing experience. The first day we went by van and the 2nd day by bicycle. His commentaries, especially helping us understand the topography of the land and what that meant in the battlefield was so helpful. And he recommends the best pizza!

Carl thank you so much for your expert guiding for our group the 172nd battalion Rocky Mountain Rangers from BC Canada
Your knowledge of the Canadian advance during the 100 days offensives was exactly what we were looking for. Your English is perfect and you were very easy to work with regarding our meeting locations and our tight time schedule.
I know that everyone in the group
enjoyed you as did I.
I look forward to using your guiding services in the future
All the best

Based in Ypres, our four day tour of WW1 battlefields was carried out partly on cycles which enabled us to stop and review places of interest easily as we travelled. I could not praise our guide, Carl Oogie high enough.
Carl clearly has a passion for and deep understanding of WW1 history, including a measured appreciation of the causes and effects of this tragic conflict. Carl's explanations of the way the war evolved and the effect that it had on the soldiers, support teams and civilians was evocative, informative and entertaining
Carl exceeded our expectations, arranging additional visits to a chocolate factory and a trappist brewery and advising us with regard to bike hire, restaurants and even where to position ourselves at the Menin Gate for the moving evening ceremony.
In addition to being a qualified and highly experienced guide, Carl also possesse a dry sense of humour and swiftly assessed our groups level of interest in military matters, tailoring our trip accordingly; including adding a visit to a remote cemetery in France so that one of our party could pay her respects to a relative who had lost his life as part of the Dunkirk retreat in WW2
In addition to his guiding expertise, Carl has a driving licence and a minibus which enables him to provide motorised transport, thus on one day, we were able to cover greater distances than we could have by bike. He also effciently transported us from and to Lille train station as we travelled from the UK by Eurostar.
Carl also recommended museums and other places of interest that we visited when on our own.
With regard to Ypres, the town is remarkable, having been effectively rebuilt since suffering so badly in WW1. We stayed at the very comfortable Ariane hotel, which is in a great location and is also highly recommended.
If you do fancy a visit to the WW1 battlefields, whether by bike or not, I cannot reccommend Carl Oogie highly enough.

We are considering travelling to Ypres and the Somme next June (2016). Probably a group of
five or six. We would like a private tour guide and would spend three days seeing the sites in
this area. We are expecting to stay in either Lille or Poperinge. Can you give me an idea of
costs, and what tours you offer. Also would you be able to supply a comfortable vehicle for us?
เขียนเมื่อ 4 ตุลาคม 2015
Thank you for your enquiry. I have a lincese to transport 7 people in my minibus. A 3-day tour would visit sites in Ypres, Flanders and the Somme. If this is a private tour then you can stay in Lille or Poperinge at your conveniance. We just need to agree on the itinerary. Is there a grave of a relative or any specific point of intrest ?
B regards
