Absolutely perfect mini van day trip with Rusty - Our guide Rusty picked us up and dropped us off at our Paris Airbnb, 4 of us altogether. Super convenient and right on time. Rusty is very charming and knowledgeable, pointing out various sights as he guided us to each part of the tour. Great walking tour of Bruges with J, delightful boat trip, yummy lunch and beer tasting. We were lucky to have a beautiful day. It was a long day, but not at all exhausting. I would probably skip the Chocolate Factory the next time--we wanted a little more time to wander the streets and shops. I'd also probably do an overnight trip the next time. It's too wonderful for just one day! Very clean van, stopped each way at nice rest stops. I'm planning to go back to Paris next year with my daughters and would definitely do this again! I will be sure to request Rusty to be our guide!

Bruges Highlights Trip from Paris with Lunch, Boat trip, Brewery & Chocolate - We were picked up at the hotel on time by 7:30 am. Our tour guide Valeria and the driver Halek were very friendly and informative. We learned a lot of history about Bruges. Valeria took us to a chocolate store and we tried some different chocolates and bought delicious maccaroons from different flavors, Valeria found a very nice place to eat in a restuarant and the location was cozy, the food was delicious/outstanding. We had a great time on the boat even though was raining, we took a lot of beautiful pictures. We also visited the Brewery and chocolate museum which we learned the different type of beers and tasting it. The chocolate museum was really nice too, we had a chocolate demonstration on how the chocolate is made of and the temperature that it needs to be cooked, after the demonstration they gave us a sample to try the delicious chocolate. We buy the Belgium Waffles to try it and they were the best waffles ever. We had time to buy some souvenirs as well. We had an awesome time and I highly recommended the tour.

Bruges Highlights Trip from Paris with Lunch, Boat trip, Brewery & Chocolate - Pick up from hotel and tour guide Valarie made it an enjoyable day for us! This day trip from Paris is recommended if you have time to spare and the minivan will make the 3.5 hours easier. Apart from the tight schedule that saw us missing the Choco factory, it was an enriching experience for first timer all in all, and the boat ride was also amazing. Lunch wasn’t Michelin as stated but no complaint since we got to relax and had our lunch right at the Belfry.

Could be a Great Tour! - We were so excited to visit this cute town, and we were not disappointed in the town of Bruges! Our disappointment came from a couple of reasons. First, our walking tour guide was over 30 minutes late, chewing into the limited time we had there since it is a 3 1/2 hour ride from Paris. Our guide let us know multiple times he did not sleep well and his stomach was upset- I felt badly for him, but there wasn’t much I could do. Our other disappointment came from the amount of time and activities scheduled. There simply isn’t enough time to do everything on this itinerary. We were rushed through the beer tasting and did not get time to go back to shops on our own at the end. I think there needs to be choices given and only do a few of the things on the list. That would make this a better tour!

Terrible and a Scam - None of the inclusion activities were given except the two hour walking guide tour Both driver and tour gave no ticket or bring us to the following inclusion No Lunch at a local Hight Quality Restaurant. We were left on our own to find our own lunch No Boat trip with audio-guide 45 minutes. We were told have to get our won ticket and go on our own NO Choco Story museum visit with chocolate show and tasting. No one even mentioned about that It’s a rip off and scam
