This tour experience was perfect for my husband and I. We were able to learn a lot from Joyce, who was the tour operator, and the other locations she took us to that was apart of the tour. We enjoyed the conversations we had with her and the history lessons she gave us. Joyce is also a seasoned tour guide and is very knowledgeable. 100% recommend!

Great experience and a day in Anwerp
George was amazing !!
Our tour of Antwerp was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Belgium, and it was all thanks to our incredible guide! From the moment we met outside the breathtaking Antwerp Central Station, their passion for this beautiful city was completely contagious.
They did an amazing job balancing Antwerp’s rich, deep history with fun local legends and modern culture. We walked through the stunning Grote Markt, admired the medieval guild houses, and learned the fascinating story behind the Brabo Fountain. They also pointed out amazing details on the spectacular Cathedral of Our Lady and took us to see the historic Het Steen castle.
What made this tour truly special was how personable, engaging, and flexible our guide was. Instead of just rattling off dry dates and facts, they felt like a local friend showing us around. They perfectly tailored the pace to our group, happily answered all of our endless questions, and even showed us a few hidden, off-the-beaten-path spots that we never would have discovered on our own.
To top it all off, they gave us fantastic personal recommendations for the best Belgian waffles, local frites, and neighborhood spots to check out after the tour ended.
If you are visiting Antwerp, do yourself a favor and book a tour with them! You will leave with a deep love for the city and unforgettable memories. Highly, highly recommended!

Day trip to Flanders fields
It’s a long day but it’s worth it. Steffan was always giving so much information at every chance he found. These details he gave us made it so much easier to understand at each location we visited .
Finishing off our trip was the last post ceremony in Ypres, this was certainly worth the wait. Although it was a long trip back to Brussells, I certainly enjoyed the whole day.
Many thanks to Steffan and bus driver Patrick on a job well done

Martin King was our very...
Martin King was our very knowledgeable guide and on the bus ride to Bastogne gave us a concise and interesting account of the battle. We all learned a lot. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in history. We visited the American cemetery, the foxholes used by Easy Company, and General MacAuliffe's headquarters, along with the Bastogne War Museum. This was a one day trip and we covered so much ground and information that it was well worth it. I'm sure that you can take a more expensive or longer tour, but if you only have a day, I highly recommend this one and that you get Martin King as your guide for the day.

Thoroughly enjoyable!
Great fun. Small group activity that was really enjoyable, learned all about chocolate and tempering, made loads of chocolates, nothing went to waste!
Harry knew his stuff and made it so easy and fun. He also makes delicious hot chocolate which we all enjoyed.
Would thoroughly recommend this activity.

Fun and informative ride
Very pleasant and informative tour. Not too difficult. A few inclines but manageable. Nice to get out of the city centre to see other important landmarks. Our guide Gabriel was very nice and had very accurate and up to date information about the city.

City Walking Tour Of Brussels
Fantastic walking city tour of Brussels with the amazing Marcella. She was fun, friendly and so knowledgeable of the area providing recommendations for shops, eateries, drinks etc We absolutely loved her fun quiz at the end of the tour which cemented how much we learned about Brussels during our time with her. This is a must see and do tour whilst in Brussels. We would highly recommend it and hopefully you will be lucky enough to have Marcella, Thanks again Marcella.

Worthwhile
The walking tour enlightened me to Brussels! Tom, our tour guide was knowledgeable and was able to answer our additional questions. He was able to provide us with additional stops and offered recommended restaurants, etc. during our stay in Brussels. I would highly recommend this walking guided tour. I would do it again.

Excellent tour without feeling touristy
Mark was very thorough and took us to all of the typical tourist highlights but also added some amazing stops at shops like Elisabeth and BS40 for chocolates (staff was all so friendly and attentive) as well as giving some history and examples of brown bars and beer history. The meal was incredible and having it in a private room felt more personal than some large scale operations. Every choice Mark made including his service was impeccable.

Chocolate- mania!
Wonderful walking tour featuring a visit to some of the original stores of the “chocolate maison” with delicious tastings and interesting stories in a very small group. Our guide Zoe was the best: Energetic, enthusiastic about sharing this experience with us. Highly recommended!

Guide was very proficient in spanish and he was always given alm info in several languages very orderly. Good organisation and meeting points were always very clear. Nice and clean bus . Cant complain. Just maybe I will start the tour 30 minutes earlier to have more time in delft.

You must see!
It was an interesting day . The history of Ghent and Brugge was explain by our guide Julianne. It was very busy the day we were there. It was a large bus tour which I am usually not in favor of, but given the distance cover was efficient. He only suggestion I would have is to provide more practical info toilettes, directions etc you truly want to experience Brugge.
