Best Tour Ever!!!
Jennifer_BAbsolutely loved this tour! It is a full day - Stephan was our tour guide and was incredibly knowledgeable - sharing history and interesting facts of all of the major sites in Ghent and Bruges. Perfect blend of touring and free time. So many beautiful photo opps I hope to return to Belgium sometime and bring my husband (this trip was solo - tacked on to a work trip) and would do the tour again.
Delightful Tour
Larry_TThe amount of free time to explore Bruges was appreciated. Lots of history was provided by the guide and good recommendations for lunch. Our radios were very good quality and we could hear the guide clearly even though we were a bit behind to take pictures. The boat tour was enjoyable, especially on a hot day. Our tour guide, Jan, was personable and very likable, with interesting stories.
