Edwin took me on private tours of the Operation Market Garden battlefields surrounding Eindhoven and Nijmegen. Absolutely fantastic tour on both days.

The stories the guides at those small museums told were outstanding and there was no way I would have known about them if I hadn't gone on Edwin's tour.
