Only Cologne with no Antwerp!

4.00I was disappointed that we signed up for both Antwerp and Cologne and instead only went to Cologne. We were told that this would make the trip too long and we could spend more time in Cologne. Our guide, Jorge was great though and did his best to accommodate both Spanish and English speaking folks in the tour.
Wonderful tour and tour guide to Cologne
