Highly recommended, great experience my family and I had at these two magical towns, souvenir stores and chocolate are amazing.
We're delighted that Bruges and Ghent added a magical touch to your family trip! Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with us, and we hope the sweet memories stay with you forever.
Outstanding experience!! Itinerary as posted waa accurate, and out tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly! My favorite was Brugge and the availability of chocolates was out of this world! Ended the trip with an optional boat ride around the canals in Brugge (+15 € in cash needed). Highly recommend!!
Sounds like Bruges turned into a sweet memory! 🍫🏰 Thanks for joining us and making the day even more special with your enthusiasm!
Excellent tour and Excellent guides. The description was vague, but it worked out well. Arrived in Ghent and then had a one hour walking tour that started at St Bravo and ended there. Audio head sets were great. It was tight but we did have enough time to get a ticket to the Alter Piece. It would be best to get an advance ticket but hard to schedule. We were in front of Alter Piece at 11:39am. If there is a long line for tickets you may not make it in time. Brugge was good, a pretty good walk from bus to city center. We had plenty of free time and went to see Madonna and Child. We did not do the boat ride but plenty of time to eat. Brugge was very crowded with tourist. I would recommend a little more time in Ghent and a little less in Brugge.
Thank you very much for your kind review and valuable feedback! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and our guides. We truly appreciate your suggestions regarding the time allocation in Ghent and Bruges, and we hope to welcome you again on another tour soon!
Josephine was a great guide and very knowledgeable.
Thank you for your kind review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the tour and Josephine’s guidance. Bruges and Ghent have so much to see, and we hope to welcome you again for more exploring !
The guide had to speak in French and English. She prioritized English because they were more numerous ☹️. Also the bus driver arrived late both times. But Bruges is beautiful and must be visited

Nous prendrons certainement vos remarques en considération afin d’améliorer l’expérience de nos futurs voyageurs.

Laura and Helga did a great job. I appreciated Laura's recommendation to try the red (cherry) beer in Ghent. The optional boat canal cruise in Bruges was lovely. We thought the pacing was good. It was time and money well spent.

My tour said English on the voucher. I was put on a bus and tour with a bilingual guide who talked English and Spanish. It was quite annoying listening to a language I didn’t know all day. I got such a headache from this Bruge and gent is beautiful though
Thank you for your feedback. We’re truly sorry that the bilingual format caused you discomfort during the tour. We would like to clarify that we clearly mention in two sections of the description (under “What makes this product unique” and in the Inclusions) that during peak times the English tour may also include Spanish. We always aim to be transparent about this and never intended to hide it. We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed Bruges and Ghent, and we’ll continue doing our best to separate languages whenever possible. Kind regards,
It was an interesting day . The history of Ghent and Brugge was explain by our guide Julianne. It was very busy the day we were there. It was a large bus tour which I am usually not in favor of, but given the distance cover was efficient. He only suggestion I would have is to provide more practical info toilettes, directions etc you truly want to experience Brugge.
Thank you for your honesty ! We’re really glad you enjoyed the tour, and your feedback truly matters—we’ll definitely take it into account to improve the experience even more.
