Lost Battalion Tours is a collaboration between WW1 author and historian Robert J. Laplander, and Mike Cunha, master of ceremonies of the Battles of the First World War podcast and battlefield explorer. 

 

Our inaugural tour will be an 8-day trip to the Argonne region August 8-15, 2020. Those of you who have traveled with Robert in the Argonne before know this is no sight-seeing bus trip; this is down in the dirt, where it happened stuff! Now YOU can join us for a trip you won't soon forget!

 

You will stay IN the Argonne, at a small French hotel, as part of your Argonne immersion experience. You'll see all the important spots concerning the battle, including a first hand tour of the whole story of the Lost Battalion with the #1 LB guy in the world. 

 

On top of that, each tour can be tailored to fit almost any special request visit by guests. And all of this for a one time, all inclusive price of just $1200.00 per single guest, or $1000.00 per guest in groups of two or more (this price does NOT include air fare). 

 

Space is limited to just 14 guests though, so don't wait - contact Mike Cunha or Robert J. Laplander today for more details. More information is coming this week so stay tuned, but if you've been thinking that you'd like to experience the AEF in France, THIS is your chance!

 

This makes a FABULOUS Christmas gift, at a very affordable price that your significant other will treasure forever! Don't miss out! Contact us today and join us - We are along the road parallel 276.4... waiting for you!

 

This announcement was so exciting that not only did I use my excited voice, but Robert Laplander’s two dogs, Buddy and Rebel, immediately started wrestling each other for a spot on the tour--true story!
