Love Retro Biketour! I did the Bruge tour with Sebastien and had so much fun that I asked to do the Damme tour with Geert the next day. The whole experience was phenomenal. This is a family business with the Mom and son Sebastien who is in medical school. Sebastien was an outstanding guide who provided rich engaging details on the Bruge history and led the tour on a perfect pace safely through the city. There were only 6 people on the tour, and everyone was respectful and cooperative. Retro Biketour provided good working bicycles, water, and helmets. We also stopped at the best gelato place. After the tour, they offered us lemonade and tasty beer. Geerts provided an outstanding well paced tour to Damme as well. We bicycled in beautiful nature along the water and safely through the cities. They lent me a rain poncho when it started to sprinkle, and we stopped for a delicious coffee in Damme. After the tour, they offered water, juice, and pretty Belgium chocolates. All of the staff were friendly, patient, kind, knowledgeable and multilingual. They spoke English clearly. They took photos and sent them to the group. The price is reasonable and well worth every penny. Don't miss these wonderful tours!
We loved our bike tour with Mercedes. This was a great way to explore beautiful Bruges efficiently. Our guide was very knowledgeable about Bruges and we learned a lot about its rich history. Also a good way to work-off all those waffles and chocolates during our 2-day stay!
Great experience. Definitely worth it.
A great way to see the city including parts not easily accessible on foot - a fabulous enthusiastic guide and a lovely drink at the end
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed exploring parts of the city that are difficult to reach on foot. It's great to hear that our guide's enthusiasm made the experience even more memorable, and we're glad you enjoyed the drink at the end. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! Warmly, Eveline
We did the evening bike tour with Evelyn and it was amazing. The evening was much more quiet in the center and made it easier to navigate busy streets. Evelyn gave wonderful history and made it interesting for all. I had my two teen boys, and they enjoyed it as well. Easy path overall for riding, beautiful sights and information. Definitely recommend
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the evening bike tour with us. Exploring Bruges in the quieter evening hours really does create a special atmosphere, and we're glad you appreciated both the peaceful streets and the beautiful sights. It's especially great to know that your two teenage boys enjoyed the tour too :) Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome your family back to Bruges again in the future! warmly, Eveline
Our family of 6 had a wonderful time biking through Bruges. Joost was an excellent guide and taught us so much about the city. So glad we were able to tour the city this way. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that your family had such a wonderful time biking through Bruges with Joost! Thanks again for choosing us and for your recommendation! Warmly, Eveline Exploring the city by bike is such a special way to see Bruges, and we’re so glad you were able to experience it together as a family.
We had our bike tour with Lorelei and she was excellent! She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and the tour was taken at the perfect pace. The bikes were easy to handle and felt quite comfortable. We got to see plenty of sights, more than you would just on foot, and gained an understanding of the city’s history. I would definitely recommend both this particular bike tour company and also doing a bike tour in general as a great way of visiting this city.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re so happy to hear that you had such a great bike tour experience with Lorelei. Her enthusiasm and knowledge truly make each tour special, and we’re glad the pace and comfort of the ride helped you fully enjoy exploring the city. We also appreciate your kind words about the bikes and your recommendation of both our company and bike tours! Thanks for choosing us! :) Warmly, Eveline
What an excellent experience! We were taken to the most interesting and important parts of the city and exposed to history we otherwise would not have learned. Sebastian was a considerate and attentive guide, making sure we were at the right pace and safely navigating through the city. He even brought water, ponchos and umbrellas. We have been on other tours that did not. At the end of the tour we concluded with a drink in a picturesque garden. We absolutely loved our experience.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the city and discovering its rich history with Sebastian. We always try to create a comfortable, engaging, and memorable experience for every guest, and we're happy to hear it worked! We’re especially pleased that the extra touches helped make your tour even more enjoyable. Ending the experience with a drink in the garden is one of our favorite moments as well, and we’re glad it added to your visit. Warmly, Eveline
What a great, well-groomed experience this was. Discover and explore Bruges with a fun guide. To conclude, a delicious drink.
