Highlight of our trip.

Rob_A, Mar 2023

We had a wonderful tour of the city thanks to our guide Sophie. She personalized the tour just for us and our interests. We saw things we would have never known about. We admired her passion and love for the city. This is what will someday bring us back again. The lunch choice was equally as great. Very enjoyable and a highlight of our trip to the beautiful city of Gent.

The walking tour with lunch was very enjoyable. The lunch was a local place with classic Belgium food. The guide had a great deal of knowledge about Ghent. The 2-3 hour time frame was the right amount for this town.
