It is wonderful that you continue your valuable service of providing military tours for veterans, their sons and daughters, historians and others. Too much of our history is being revised or forgotten. Valor Tours brings alive the history of those horrific battles by presenting tours to actual battlefields. Lest we forget. Thank you for all you do at the #1 historical battlefield tour company which provides an invaluable service.

 "I like how we stayed on the go and were able to get to all the major sectors of the AEF...truly was quite an accomplishment. Work hard - play hard is my creed and Valor Tours delivers." Tim Daniel "The trip was well planned and executed. The hard work you and Mike (tour leader) put into it certainly paid off for us." Dan Hamill "All of it was incredible...being on my Grandfather's battlefield was very special." Jim Campbell |

| My son Greg and I went to Guadalcanal with Valor Tours sponsored tour celebrating the 75th anniversary of the WW2 American invasion on August 2, 1942 to capture the airfield the Japanese were building there to intercept our supply routes to Australia. The battle for this island lasted 6 months until February 1943, when the Japanese withdrew the last 12,000 of their surviving troops. The tour was led by the legendary John Innes (of Brisbane, Australia) and Dr. John Shively (of Lafayette, Indiana), who also led our 70th Anniversary tour in 2012.

Granted, they don't have much control over the Iwo Jima portion, but it was totally worth the trip & expense for those who are interested in this type of thing. We covered a lot of ground & learned so much from Andy. We felt we should make sure that others are aware of this small family-run company." The Barlows | |

| "Just wanted to send a note of appreciation for the great trip to Vietnam. Mr. John Dewing did a great job with us. I was very impressed with the country. When I left there 45 years ago it was a primitive, war torn and desperate country. It appears to be on it's way to becoming a prosperous nation. Friendly people. Beautiful country, beaches and mountains.
I was especially impressed with the hotels and meals arranged." Lee Terry | |
