wonderfully spent day

Published on Sep, 2024

we enjoyed our day very much. Highly recommend. Our tour guide was VERY knowledgable and was very happy to go at our pace. His driver was about 30 mins late for pick up. Guide was not happy about this either. Was fine with adding the time on at the end of the day to make up for it :)

Private highlights of Ghent and Bruge, all day

Published on Jul, 2024

This was a great day trip from our Brussels bnb for the family (including 77year old and a 7year old). The weather was spotty so our guide Dirk flipped the itinerary and we wound up missing all of the rain that way (great move!). We hit the highlights of the two medieval cities. A fair amount of walking is required for these places, which we were used to.
