Well-timed tour makes visiting Bruges easy

This was well-organized from start to finish. We specifically wanted to just see one place instead of rushing from city to city, and the bus ride was relaxing once we found the group. The introductory tour was great, and we have plenty of time in the afternoon to eat, climb the tower, and walk around.

Very beautiful city and we spend a very nice time there. The timing was fine for the trip to do all activities you like. However I recommend to get attention to the guided walking trip routes as it will be easier than the GPS to take same routes to back to the meeting point. Using GPS was going to add about 10 mins and maybe more so we didn't use it.
Great day trip

Enjoyed the experience with a great guided tour with plenty of free time to explore on my own. I did get a little lost so maybe a map would help.

The instructions for finding the guide in Brussels were easy and clear. Our guide, Oscar, was engaging, informative, and professional. In Brussels, Oscar led us around on a historical tour for about an hour, and then we had four hours to explore the beautiful city. The bus from Brussels to Bruges was shared with Spanish and English tours; the two guides took turns making announcements. The return trip however, was only Spanish. The company needs to update a bit to be able to accept credit cards for earbuds and water. Many of the bathrooms in Bruges cost a euro to use, they all accepted ccs.
