5.00Had a fantastic set of guides, who were knowledgeable and kind. The tour was well organized and run. Recommend doing the Ghent add on, not just the Bruges tour.

5.00The Ghent/Bruges tour is a fast paced and lovely (but long) day! There is so much to see in each city that this tour might better be titled “an overview of Ghent/Bruges” tour. We now know which activities we would like to go back to see more of in each city. Our tour guide Julian was very nice and lead us through each city highlighting significant sites of each and providing chocolate/dining recommendations for Ghent and Bruges. His energy and knowledge was fantastic. I only wish we had another 30-40 minutes on our own in each town after the walk through with Julian. There were so many things to do and see so we had to be selective once we were able to explore on our own before meeting back up with the group at the specified location. One thing to note, since we went on a weekday and encountered commute traffic, it was quite a long day leaving at 8:30am and returning about the same time in the PM. It was not the fault of our guide or the bus driver. Julian was kind enough to recommend Brussels restaurants for us when we returned back from the tour. In each city we visited with him, his food recommendations were spot on. If he lead a food and beer tour in Brussels, we would happily take it.
Almost perfect

4.00Everything very beautiful and organized. They only sinned in the bathroom question. On a trip of almost 2 hours and who had an accident, should have the option to stop to the bathroom. Several passengers were tight to use the bathroom and the bus driver did not let use the bathroom. We knew there was a bathroom on the bus. My husband and friends had to run down and go after a bathroom. I found a lack of planning and respect for the passengers.
