点评:We took the WWII Museum ‘Band of Brothers’ 13-day tour in June, which was our first organized tour ever. We are adept at planning overseas trips, but this one would have been impossible to replicate on our own. It was outstanding in every way. Our team included: logistics manager, Rachel Moore; Band of Brothers actor, Ross McCall (Joe Liebgott); bus driver Stan; and expert local tour guides Andy (UK), Sly (France), plus Edwin (The Netherlands/Luxembourg/Germany/Austria). Every single one of them took their roles seriously, and they all operated seamlessly as a team. They were experts in their respective areas, personable, and engaging. Each demonstrated a strong commitment to veterans, inherent interest in other people, and love of their jobs. The tour kept you busy the entire day exploring different sites as you retrace the steps of Easy Company. There were 2 days of longer bus rides, but with entertainment along the way and plenty of stops to break them up (restroom also on the bus). Hotel choices were excellent, especially Lion D’ Or in Normandy right in the middle of picturesque Bayeux, Chateau Urspelt near Clervaux/Bastogne (try out the cellar bar!), and the Grand Hotel of Zell am See in the Austrian Alps. Food was plentiful, local, and upscale. The tour made for wonderful memories and new friendships!
翻译:我们六月份参加了二战博物馆“兄弟连”13日游,这是我们有生以来第一次参加的跟团游。我们很擅长规划海外旅行,但这次的体验单靠我们自己是无法复制的。这次旅行在各个方面都非常出色。我们的团队包括:物流经理Rachel Moore;兄弟连演员Ross McCall(Joe Liebgott饰);巴士司机Stan;以及专业的当地导游Andy(英国)、Sly(法国)和Edwin(荷兰/卢森堡/德国/奥地利)。他们每个人都认真对待自己的角色,并且作为一个团队配合默契。他们都是各自领域的专家,亲切友好,富有魅力。每个人都展现了对退伍军人的强烈责任感、对他人的内在关心以及对工作的热爱。这次旅行让你一整天都忙于探索不同的景点,就像重温Easy Company的足迹一样。其中有两天是较长的巴士旅程,但沿途有很多娱乐活动和停靠站供你休息(巴士上还有卫生间)。酒店选择很棒,尤其是位于诺曼底、风景如画的巴约中心的Lion D’ Or酒店、克莱沃/巴斯托涅附近的Urspelt城堡(一定要去试试它的地下室酒吧!),以及位于奥地利阿尔卑斯山的滨湖采尔大酒店。食物丰富,本地特色,而且高档。这次旅行留下了美好的回忆,也结识了新的朋友!
