A quick visit in Bruges....wished it was longer! - Steve our guide was great. He made the tour memorable and interesting for all in the group. He had many historical facts and interesting stories. He had great recommendations for dining and places to circle back to for a longer visit. It was initially difficult to find the group, as we were told to be in front of the Burger King...and the group was actually elsewhere on the main square....but we found them!

A must see tour! - WOW!!! I wish I could have given Pasquale ten stars! This tour flew by even though the clock said it was over two hours. Pasquale was such an interesting character that I felt it should have been a 75+ Euro per person tour. Pasquale was so w knowledgeable and entertaining that I didn’t want it to end.
If you can book this tour, do it. I took some pictures, but it appears that this post doesn’t allow them.

A Great Intro to Bruges - We had a beautiful day that was augmented by this tour which was a introduction to the history of Bruges. The group was a bit large at 20 people and involved a bit of delay for slower walkers, but he kindly waited for all to catch up. Some interesting stories and insights
