Day tour from Brussels - Our driver Aasma and guide Sebastian were terrific! We were brought to amazing sites with detailed explanations…bringing these charming medieval cities to life!
We accidentally left some items behind in the car and they went out of their way to make sure we got them. The whole day was tailor made and perfectly suited to us! Thank you!

Fantastic Day! - We were picked up at our hotel, Hilton Grand Place, promptly at 9:30 and taken by our driver, Salah, and our guide, Phillippe, to Brugge, and then onto Ghent later that afternoon. These two were great and we enjoyed our tour of these two cities. Salah and Phillippe had great communication between the two and wherever Phillippe arranged Salah to be in the city at a certain time, he was there waiting. This was super important to me as I was traveling with my 78 year old father. I would have no hesitation booking this private tour again, it was worth every penny! Phillippe was so friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about his tour with us.

Do more research and request only English speaking tour guides/drivers - The cities were fabulous. Our tour guide spoke broken English and we could barely hear her. Our driver spoke NO English. We were rushed when wanting to walk around and enjoy the 2 cities. I've done this private tour in Positano with your company and that's why I booked again. Disappointed with return on investment.

Not worth it! - Not worth all that money!!! I’ve been in private tours like this in Prague, Budapest & Vienna, those private tours were with a tour guide very well prepared in history knowledge about historic structures and history of the city, the driver pick up in all the possible places to make sure our tour was not all by foot and arrange some free time so I we can have time to have a meal or explore the city… also want to take a boat trip by the canal and ask before it in the app before the day of the tour and never receive an answer back… the treatment given at these paid cost was very below my expectations… Very poor experience in handling tours like these… I ask for a change in pick up time and they agreed without telling they will reduce the tour hours that supposed to be 8 to 9 hrs changed to 6… Surprise! If I will prefer a insta photos tour I will pick one much more cheaper… My daughter even can’t come so I paid almost $1,400 for myself only which is insane… You could have a private and very elegant experience in other cities for $500 or $600 even for two persons…
