A question about a tour we list, a correction, or a request to be considered? Write to us and a person will read it.

How to reach us

Email hello@sommebattlefieldstours.com. We answer in English, usually within two working days.

We are a booking guide, not a tour operator, so we cannot change, cancel or refund a booking. That goes to the operator through the platform you booked on, whose contact details are on your confirmation. If you cannot find them, write to us and we will point you to the right place.

If your tour was cancelled or you missed it

A refund or a new date is the operator's to give. Your confirmation email carries their contact and your booking reference, which is the fastest route. Every tour we list refunds in full if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start, and the operator's own terms are on your booking.

Corrections

If a fact here is wrong or out of date, tell us what and where. Meeting points move, museum hours change with the season, and the fastest fix is usually a reader who has just been. Every page carries the date it was last checked.

Operators
