Great stories and a smart friendly guide!
Artur arranged a great tour with expert knowledge of Brugge and a beautiful walk around the city. He took time to explain, didn't rush, and was always open to questions. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Bruges With Xavier
We couldn’t have had a better tour of stunningly beautiful Bruges than with Xavier! He was a polite, considerate, knowledgeable and particularly engaging guide. Full of many great stories, especially about the swans! We told him we needed a slower pace and frequent opportunities to sit, as we were pretty worn out from previous 2 weeks of cobblestone walking. He met us at the train station as planned and off we went to a park where there was a giant map of Bruges and he gave us an overview of everything before we started, ensuring we had a place to sit while he was talking. He made sure we had a bathroom break, along with a drink and rest. He truly loves this amazing city where he was born and it shows. We would not hesitate to recommend Xavier, whether for seniors (like us), or any other age groups. He has a knack for connecting with people and sharing his engaging stories and knowledge.

Gorgeous Ghent With Benedick
We booked Benedict for a 3 hour tour of Ghent, and were so glad we did. He is an unusually knowledgeable (official) guide, as well as a kind and considerate person. He met us at the train station, ushered us onto a city tram and away we went straight to the stunning Sunday Flower Market, a real treat. From there, he walked us through a myriad of the sights of gorgeous Ghent. He addressed our concerns about getting lost on the way back and gave us explicit instructions how to return. In addition, he pointed out the best canal cruise to do afterwards. He understood I needed to sit occasionally, and accommodated that request, constantly asking if I was okay. I would would recommend Ben—and he gives you a surprise treat, too!
