Experience Operation Market Garden over two private days with Dutch historical researcher and storyteller Martin van Elmpt of Tour Guides for You.
Starting from Amsterdam, Eindhoven or another agreed location, we follow the operation from the 101st Airborne landings and Hell’s Highway to Nijmegen, Arnhem and the British airborne battle. Using original photographs and the landscape itself, we connect the military decisions with the stories of the men who fought here.
Because we have two days, there is time to go beyond the standard highlights and explore locations that match your interests, whether Easy Company, British or American airborne units, XXX Corps, bridges, museums or lesser-known battlefield sites.
This is a private historical journey, adapted to your pace and knowledge. If you have a family connection, specific soldier or unit, tell me in advance: where possible, I can build that story into the route. It’s your day, your journey—the idea behind Tour Guides for You.
