A little bit about us...
World
War II Tours of Europe is a subsidiary of
Custom Euro Tours which is owned and
operated by Dennis Ross, who has over 30
years' experience in the travel business.
Mr. Ross has worked with actual veterans
over the past 20 years developing custom
group tours escorting them back through
their old battle fields of Europe. From
northern Africa all the way East to the
River Elbe and north into Normandy. Many of
the Veterans Mr. Ross has worked with have
requested their tour be designed to retrace
their footsteps in Europe during WW II.
A native Scotsman, Dennis spent seven years
in the British Army where his travels
inspired his career in tourism. After an
honorable discharge in 1972, he spent two
decades in Germany learning the tour
business from the ground up.
He began as a tour bus driver, then studied
tourism and became a registered member of
the IATM. Dennis was a freelance tour
operator working for prominent European tour
companies and was subsequently hired by one
to be its operations manager overseeing
special groups.
In 1989, Dennis started Custom Euro Tours,
conducting tours to the US for one of the
largest British tour companies in the UK.
Dennis lives in Round Rock, Texas (a suburb
of Austin) with his wife, Cheryl who helps
Dennis run the busy business. Dennis
specializes in custom WW II group tours for
Americans wanting to visit the battlefields
of Europe. |
