excellent and scenic - Mavliud was great and the sights we saw were amazing. He picked us up at the hotel in Brussels and off we went. He knew to get us to Bruges before the real crowds started. The Waffle place, Lunch Place and Beer Place were all top notch. In Ghent he made sure to fit in the 2 things we wanted: the Altarpiece at St. Bavo's and a brief stop at the MSK museum. The small group aspect was amazing no waiting on others to get to the bus; the ability to alter or add to the itinerary etc all great reasons to do these small tours!

Fun Day Trip - This was a very fun day with Mavlaud. He gave us a good amount of history, showed us around, fed us awesome Belgium food and let us explore a bit on our own. The transportation was comfortable and efficient and it was a great way to take a side trip to Brugge and Ghent from Brussels. He also took some awesome pictures of us along the way. We had a great day!

We couldn’t be happier with the experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Belgium! - Our tour in Bruges and Ghent was absolutely fantastic! Both cities were breathtaking, full of charm and history. What made the experience even more special was our guide Mavliud, who was incredibly friendly. He shared so many interesting stories and facts, and his enthusiasm really brought the cities to life. Everything was so well-organized, It was the perfect mix of sightseeing, history, and local culture.

I would gladly repeat this experience again! - Thank you so much "Tour up in Europe" for this amazing tour. From beginning to the end they stayed in touch with me and organized the tour based on my preferences. The guide was very kind and polite, showing me all the hidden spots I would never have discovered on my own.

I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Brugge and Ghent! - I recently took a tour through Belgium, visiting the beautiful cities of Bruges and Ghent with this company, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The tour was organized wonderfully, and the driver and guide were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The transfer was smooth and very comfortable. Both cities were shown to us in great detail, with plenty of interesting stories and insights.

Book this now. - This was so worth the money. Mavliud was AMAZING. He was knowledgable and so helpful. There is no way we would have seen everything on our own, let alone the train trips to Ghent and Bruges. I will recommend to all my friends and family!

Average experience - Overall it was an ok experience with hits and misses and hence I am going with an average rating. What worked well: 1. Good tour of Bruges 2. Our Chauffeur was a really nice person who was super patient with us while we took our own time exploring Ghent 3. Comfortable car What could have been better: 1. Communication was not prompt. Till the morning of the day of the trip, we did not get clear intimation of guide details and I had to follow up multiple times. The guide arrived around 40 minutes late. 2. Multiple things were different from what is promised: a. No water bottles in the car b. No chocolate and beer tastings. The guide will point to a street and say this is where you get good chocolates, that's it c. No private tour in Ghent. The guide left us at Bruges 3. The guide was in so much of a rush. He said his day job starts in the afternoon and has to leave in time for that. So in Bruges, he left us at a restaurant to end the tour and we had to find our own way back. As he rightly suggested, google maps helped us for that but we missed all the scenic routes on the way back since google maps showed some back streets. Either ways, you don't pay so much money for someone to ask you to use Google maps. Overall, a bit disappointed primarily due to the unprofessional approach of the tour operator especially given its a costly premium service.

Horrible experience!!! - Do not book with this company, I booked MONTHS in advance and they cancel our trip at 9:50 pm the night before the tour. Expecting us to reschedule for another day. These people need to understand we travel all the way from another continent to see these places and have everything scheduled and cannot accommodate to THEIR times.
