Great Day trip
197jenniferMy husband and I have had the most fantastic day trip. Our guide Andrea was wonderful. She went out of her way making everyone happy. Ghent was beautiful, and we loved it. Bruges was picturesque. The boat trip was well worth it. Andrea was so friendly to chat to. She gave us the history and showed us all the main sites. She answered any and all questions and was really knowledgeable. To top off a wonderful day she was happy to give a list of things to do in Brussels on our return. A really magical day.
Best thing we did in Brussels
Hannah, June 2024Stefan was the absolute best guide! I cannot recommend this tour enough. To start, Bruges and Ghent are utterly beautiful. The tour hits all the highlights in the city and gave great commentary. We had a decent amount of time to explore on our own. I definitely recommend springing for the boat tour as it was so pretty. If you are looking for something to do while in Brussels, I highly suggest this tour.
