wonderfully spent day - we enjoyed our day very much. Highly recommend. Our tour guide was VERY knowledgable and was very happy to go at our pace. His driver was about 30 mins late for pick up. Guide was not happy about this either. Was fine with adding the time on at the end of the day to make up for it :)

Private highlights of Ghent and Bruge, all day - This was a great day trip from our Brussels bnb for the family (including 77year old and a 7year old). The weather was spotty so our guide Dirk flipped the itinerary and we wound up missing all of the rain that way (great move!). We hit the highlights of the two medieval cities. A fair amount of walking is required for these places, which we were used to.

Bruges and Ghent Private Tour - Excellent choice to visit both cities. Our driver and the guide were fantastic. We had time for a river cruise in Bruges and it was amazing. Definitely great way to see both cities

Exceptional Experience - Walter was one of the most knowledgeable tour guide we have ever had. His knowledge of the history of wars was exceptional.

Excellent - Henry was an excellent guide- knowledgeable about Belgium history as well as the local history of Ghent. He modified the tour to fit our need as we had spent time visiting Bruges 2 days prior. We were able to see a few sights in Brussels on the route to Ghent. Highly recommend this tour/guide.

Tour was overall very good although the tour guide’s English was somewhat of an obstacle - Old architecture in Bruce. This review is way too long and Is mandatory to complete. My impression is that the length of comments should not be required

Very Beautiful Bruges and Ghent - It is essentially a walking tour with car pick up and drop off. Our guide Henri was very knowledgeable of both Bruges and Ghent. The places are very pretty and beautiful.

Don’t do it! - This was a horrific experience and I would not recommend. It was horrible. Our guide did not speak clear English. We asked to do several things and he ignored all requests. Then he insisted on eating lunch with us and stuck me with paying for his lunch and never acknowledged it or thanked me. He definitely ruined Bruges and Ghent for us. What a waste of money.

Bad tour company that doesn't operate in good faith - Viator rebooked us for this tour company after our initial tour company canceled at the last minute. We were thankful that this company filled in, but unfortunately, it was not a good tour.
The first issue occurred when we were messaged by our tour guide in the morning that he was coming to pick us up in his "Comfort car." We spent hundreds more on a "luxury car," and the tour operator was unwilling to offer a refund for the price difference. They offered us 150 Euro back or a free lunch. The price difference is more than double what they offered. They made the excuse of commission costs, last minute booking, yadda yadda. They were unwilling to make it right.
After that debacle, we were uncertain whether we even wanted to take the tour because it was already off on the wrong foot. But, since we were left high and dry, we decided to take a chance.
Next, our tour operator shows up. He tried his best, but he didn't know the country well. He only lived there for five years and did tours as a side hustle on the weekends. NOT GOOD. I would expect an expert tour guide who knows the country well and can speak clear English for the amount we paid.
After that, the tour itself was sub-par. We waited a long time for the guide to find parking, had to pay for items ourselves, were rushed along, and ultimately didn't enjoy the country as we would have liked.
Be aware of this company and what you pay for. They're out to get the most money out of you and not provide the service you paid for.
