Must Do in Ghent! - Great tour, very funny tour-guide called Kenny! He seemed to enjoy his work a lot; fun facts but also educational facts were provided ✨ We had a very good time despite of the cold evening weather.
It is really a free tour, no tourist scam. You are always welcomed to tip the guide at the end of the tour. And believe me they deserve it!

Not worth it - We enjoy taking dark tours of towns with great histories - London, Bath, Washington DC, etc. This was the most flat boring experience, it was like watching a school child unprepared for homework or a class presentation. It was not the darker side of history, it was simply at night. The price was RIDICULOUS ($175 for two people).
