Perfect from the beginning. Yves, our guide, was very knowledgeable and willing to work at our pace. He communicated before the tour, so pick-up location was easy and the rest was history.

Yves was absolutely amazing! Best tour guide ever. His knowledge of history of Brouges, Ghent, and Brussels was over and beyond any expectation. He took our group from Las Vegas for a full day and it was memorable. Thank you Yves for a tremendous day! God Bless
