Great private tour of Bruges with a local guide who knew so much about the city. We not only saw the major sites but also the back streets and out-of-the-way places a tourist would never know about.
This particular tour guide did not show up and we wasted a precious hour of a short stop over in Bruges which really made us angry. When complained I was offered a full refund but that’s not the point. The no show was an error made by the guide which sounded weak to me as zi had messaged him three times prior to the tour without reply meaning I had no direct way to contact him/her other than using the message service on the Viator app.
Dear Michael, Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we're truly sorry for what happened. A no-show on a private tour, especially during a short stopover where every hour counts, is simply not acceptable, and your frustration is completely warranted. We appreciate that you tried to get in touch beforehand. For future reference, our hosts' direct phone number is always included in your booking confirmation and that's the fastest way to reach them if something comes up, as they don't have access to the Viator chat. We're taking this seriously and looking into what went wrong to make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else. We hope Bruges left you with some magic despite this hiccup and that we'll get the chance to show you what a Withlocals experience is really supposed to feel like! Kind regards, The Withlocals Team
What a beautiful place Brugge is and our tour guide Ann made it extra special. She was patient, evenly paced walking tour around the beautiful streets. We learned many interesting historical facts and landmarks. She also offered to take photos, suggestions on where to get the best waffles, chocolates and Belgian beer ! Our last stop was De Maan brewery and what fascinating spot to do a tour and finished off with some lunch and beer! Great experience from a true local. She was lovely and we made some great memories and be sure to come back ! Thanks Ann :)
Artur canceled. Be wary if booking with Viator. I was scammed. Viator refuses refund. Disappointed!!
Dear Guest, We are sorry to hear your experience in Bruges did not go as planned and we completely understand your frustration. We hope Bruges still gave you some wonderful moments and that we get the chance to welcome you back one day. Kind Regards, The Withlocals Team
Viator cancelled my tour. We were visiting Bruges for 1 day only. You let us down. I hope I will receive my refund promptly.
This is a wonderful way to orientate yourself to the city and also learn the history. Patrick was a wonderful guide. He was interesting and has a great love of the city.
Spent an hour and a half walking around Bruges learning about its history, architecture etc. Hilde was a terrific, and very knowledgeable guide. So glad we chose this tour!!
Our guide, Lavigna, was knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great tour. She asked for special requests (we wanted to go to a chocolate shop) and she chose the perfect one for us.
Our tour was the best tour we have had in our many travels. Jay had a wealth of knowledge and history about the city but his exuberant personality made the tour so much more entertaining. He brought the city and its history to life! Thank you Jay!
Delightful walking tour of Bruge! Our guide, Lavigne, was terrific. Born in Bruge, She spoke perfect English. Warm, engaging and full of charming stories and history we could not have asked for more when I mentioned I wanted to buy some handmade lace, she called around to find some for me.
