Battle of the Bulge base

I spent a long weekend touring Battle of the Bulge sites with my nephew some 10 years ago. We stayed in Houffalize, which I enjoyed more than Bastogne (where I'd stayed on a previous trip). My favorite day was the one in which we followed the route of Peiper's advance from just east of the Belgian border to the point where it was stopped (northern part of battlefield area). If you are anywhere near it, I recommend a brief stop at the British war cemetery at Hotton; the British approach to their war cemeteries is very poignant.

Thanks very much for the replies. I really appreciate it. My father fought in the BOB and i have read several books about it.... including a couple with letters home from soldiers in the same division as my dad. I also have some of his letters so i have a good sense of his path before and after the BOB. Jeff I agree with you in that it looks like public transportation is not much of an option.
Here is my itinerary in case you'd like to comment. Spend a night in Lux. city once we arrive in Europe. Then rent a car and tour the American cemetery on the outskirts of town before driving to Ettelbruck to tour the Patton Museum. Then drive to Bastogne and spend four nights there. We have one all day tour guide trip from Bastogne and intend to drive around ourselves on the other days. We plan to drive to Esh-sur-Sure and Eschdorf as well as visit the sites in Bastogne. We would like to visit a former POW camp site but it doesnt seem that there are any very close.
I welcome any additions to this itinerary or suggestions.

Thank you again,
