With a busy schedule and stops at Omaha Beach and Bastogne, as well as attractions like Mont Saint-Michel, free time in Paris and the Sound of Music Tour, this tour is the perfect compromise for couples and families that are looking for an active, balanced European holiday.

11-day Beyond Band of Brothers R&R

Absolutely-great mixture of WW 2 and non-war attractions. I took my whole family and it was the trip of a lifetime. One suggestion:In the brochure booklet describing the tour one of the reviews says "Overall a very good tour". That sort of scared me a bit-only a "very good tour". I would expect a more glowing description. Happily I can report it was "a fantastic tour". It was nice that the details were taken care of-hotels, restaurants, etc. yet we still had plenty of free time.

The tour was excellent with all the travelers needs preplanned and taken care of. The tour manager was fabulous, knowledgeable, attentive and on-task. Our motor coach driver was skilled and adept at traveling the narrow roads in the old city streets.

11-day Beyond Band of Brothers R&R

Rudy got us in the right places at the right times to miss the crowds. Restaurants and food were fantastic. Free time was more than enough, and hotels were comfortable. Would do it again in a heartbeat if we didn't have to fly 10 hours to get there. I would recommend Procom for this kind of tour.

11-day Beyond Band of Brothers

My impression of the tour is as positive as it could be. Each and every detail was addressed. The passengers' comfort and safety was paramount to the tour guide; he made sure meals and accommodations were ready upon arrival. Additionally, he was extremely friendly and mixed well with the passengers. I would highly recommend Procom/BBOB tours to anyone, without hesitation. They are professional and thorough and the price of the trips are well worth it, as everything is included. Top notch company.

5-day Normandy Invasion

I would recommend this Tour for the person who wants an intense, though not terribly rushed, exposure to the highlights of the Invasion. It was, for me, a perfect complement to the hundreds of books and many films I have watched about D-Day.

Great itinerary. I would recommend the tour because of the variety of sites visited and primarily for the access to the Rememberance event.

5-day Pearl Harbor on a Budget

Navigating Honolulu during the crowded annual Pearl Harbor remembrance event would have been difficult since we didn’t know the lay of the land and the rules of engagement dealing with logistics such as timing, security, etc. Robert was on top of that.

5-day Pearl Harbor on a Budget

No complaints at all. The tour manager was great. Each of our destinations was great. The Anniversary of Pearl Harbor was an experience that we will never forget. It was an honor and a privilege to meet the survivors and listen to their stories. This is a company that genuinely seems to care about each guest and their experience.

8-day Battle of Britain

Just the right balance. Love the fact that you can access everything via MY TRIP on the website. If you get stuck or have a question there is always someone to talk to via chatting or by phone.
I love the fact that even with expansion they still have a small company feel. I always am treated as a friend when I call the office, not just a customer. I am never pressured with "What tour can I book for you today?"
