We booked the 12 person tour but it ended up with just us and our wonderful guide Bee she was excellent very knowledgeable and chatty we arrived early and used the contact number to see if we could switch from the 3pm slot to the 10am which wasn't possible but as we were the only people booked on Bee met us at 1pm and gave us an amazing tour of the city. She even had some great recommendations on other things to see not part of the tour and restaurants etc. Thank you so much for a great time

We had a glorious experience touring Ghent with our guide Anna. Ghent is her world and she shared all she knows and experiences in daily life with such joy and enthusiasm. Not only did we see the major highlight of Ghent, including churches, castles, noble homes, charming streets and bridges, we found delicious and delightful hidden gem’s throughout the town and she coupled them with insider stories! We so enjoyed every moment!

It was nice exploring experience. Was long just enough to be able to absorb all the history moments. Atmosphere was very friendly and our guide just knew how to entertain. One wouldn’t believe that you can see so many different details in that small area. :) Gent is beautiful city!
