Inder was great
The tour guide "Inder" was great. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and thoughtful. The tour took about 2 hours. The pace was perfect and there was Belgian chocolate at one stop.

Awful
I received an email saying my trip was cancelled but I have still been charged. Reason given that multiple people from the same group had booked at the same time. When I replied back saying we were 4 separate families making separate bookings I got no reply and still got charged
Operator response
Hello, there were three reasons why you did not receive a refund: 1. You did not comply with the large group policy, which is clearly specified in the booking terms and conditions. Please make sure to read the terms and conditions before making a reservation in the future. 2. You did not comply with the cancellation policy, as you attempted to cancel the tour only a few hours before it was scheduled to begin. Please review the cancellation terms before booking in the future. 3. Due to the late cancellation, the guide lost the opportunity to offer those spots to other participants.

Wonderful tour & experience
This was a wonderful tour given by Martin. He was extremely informative & had a great sense of humor. We loved his stories. He showed us all the important sights & explained them thoroughly. It was only a 2.5 hour tour but he was able to show us quite a lot. I wished it had been longer so we could have gone inside some of the venues. You need to schedule extra days time to do that on your own. Excellent experience & I highly recommend the tour & Martin to all those who travel to Bruges.

Best Tour Guide Ever!!!
We had the pleasure of having basically a private tour with Alex, our tour guide, and another young family (parents and a 3-year old). It truly was a fantastic 3 hour tour pointing out so many details that you could never know on your own. Thoroughly thrilled with Alex's (she/her) patience with everyone and with absolutely no rushing through the experience! We got to hear about her love story, which only enhanced the personal touch she put into the whole tour. No lie, best tour we have ever been on due to Alex. Even with a cold and breezy day, she made us feel warm with her personality. Thank you Alex!
