Excellent trip - Juliana was a very good tour guide and guided the tour in the best way to cover entire Bruges and Glent. Made the trip worth it, and sharing all knowledge in a short period of time.

Excellent experience - It was such a great experience. I recommend it to all the history buffs like me who wanted to learn about Belgian history in an amusing way and at the same time full of trivias and exciting stories.

Bruges and Ghent Day Trip from Brussels - Bruges and Ghent Day Trip from Brussels makes it easy to experience these charming towns while visiting Belgium. One insight... there is a worn out saying that "if you don;t like the weather, just wait a few minutes and it will change..." This is so very true in April in Belgium... light rain, sunshine, cold wind, light rain, sunshine, rinse repeat every few minutes. Bring ponchos. Beautiful architecture, medieval feeling.

A wonderful experience - The tour guide was amazing. He narrated everything like it was in the year it took place excellent tour guide the bus driver a great driver and a very friendly person. The bus broke down that day, and he managed to fix it although it was a little bit of an inconvenient they made it very pleasant.

Not worth the money. - Our guide did not speak English well and only spoke about 25% of the time that the Spanish guide spoke. We were in a mixed group which would have been fine if we had a guide that spoke English better. The ride was safe and pleasant (thanks to the driver) but the tour itself not worth the money. Very disappointing.

Poorly Run - Too many people for one guide.
The headphone system requires you to be close to the guide or you received a lot of static and can't understand what they are saying. With so many people in the group it was impossible to be close to the guide to hear
The headphone system was not strong enough for the group!!
The guide needed an umbrella or clothing that identified him.
The city is crowded and people intermingle with the group and break the group apart. It was hard to keep track of the guide.
The bus was over crowded. There were seats for everyone, but the rear seat at the very back of the bus was completely full.
The guide spoke too fast. Especially with the terrible communication system.
They Don't take you to see the famous painting in Ghent.
Mystic Lamb.
When you arrive at the meeting point there are several tours going out at the same time. There are no signs to identify your group.
It was raining and they were standing out in the rain. There was an option for them to stand under cover.
This was a terrible tour and I would not recommend this tour group for these two destinations
