We certainly had a great time; the guide Ringo was super friendly and fun with the group. His passion for history was evident in his explanations. A hug from Cantabria!
The tour was very complete . Mark our guide was excellent! He kept us informed and interested all day. Besides knowledge, he has a great sense of humor and made us feel welcomed. Mark took care of each one of us and did an amazing job. Charlie the other tour guide was very detailed, patient and very knowledgeable as well. It as in intense tour. We completed more than 15,000 steps and most of the tour is walking (just so you know as a reference) Despite the intensity, the 12 hours passed by quickly and it was very helpful to have the transportation from Brussels all arranged in advance by the tour guides.
thanks for your comment ;-)
