Bruges is the most beautiful city of Belgium. Every lane you cross, every building you see is so picturesque. I loved it. Plus, our guide Alexander was amazing.
Taught us to say bye in Deutsch too, Dakh dakh! Definitely recommended. Those €75 are worth every penny you are surely going to love the place - it's beauty, the Belgian fries, beer and the chocolates ofcourse!

Bruge was a beautiful town but we did a very fast walk through and really didn't have
enough time. Alex was a good tour guide keeping us informed of the history and interesting
facts of the areas we passed through.

Tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. However, she walked too quickly. We were not able to keep up through the crowds, and unable to hear information she gave. Quit the tour and met the bus at departure time.

Beautiful city. No headphones. Group of 30!!! Couldn’t hear tour guide . Large group and crowded city.
Guide was very arrogant and didn’t try to make adjustments so everyone could hear. The worst.

Bruges is beautiful and worth a trip all on its own. If it’s this Viator tour or nothing, ok. Do your research ahead of time and know what you want to see. Also, be aware thst a sit down meal will cut deeply into your time.
Don’t have high expectations on the part of the guide who will give a 1 hour guided tour of the city then turn you loose. Ours was Pieter. Ok info on the bus. When we got to Bruges, it turned out that a microphone set had ‘not been available’. Viator- how is that even possible and how do you not ensure guides have mikes available? What was annoying is that Pieter didn’t bother to wait for the group to all be next to him before he started speaking. And he didnt bother to speak up, even knowing he had no mike. So you couldnt hear. He seemed put out when asked to repeat what he said. This is the first time I’ve seen nobody giving a tip at the end of a tour.
A little heads up —. On the way back to the bus, follow the same route that you took on the way into the city. I followed Google Maps just to see something different. It took me into the park which was nice, but the sidewalks connecting to the drop off zone were all closed and I had to backtrack. This could be a problem if you’re short on time!

This was a fantastic day trip from Amsterdam. Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Highly recommend this tour.

The price is right for this day trip! Ian was a fantastic guide. He talked just enough but not too much on the 3 1/2 hour trip about some of the points of interest along the way. He was engaging and fun. The 5 hours in Bruges was enough to see all we wanted to see, shop, and have some lunch and drinks. Ian didn’t talk at all on the trip back which was great letting those who wanted to snooze do so in quiet.

Pleasant and interesting day. Great tour guide. Just the right amount of free time for a meal and shopping. Excellent restaurant recommendation by our guide.
Beatrice_N, Apr 2024
Easy ride . The 3 hours went by fast both ways. Comfortable bus . Bruges is nice and enough for one day. I think you need more time to walk around and eat (slow service) so the 2 hours you are given to yourself is not enough.

Great time in Belgium! Coach was comfortable, driver was fantastic. We had plenty of time there to learn and explore! I recommend DOM chocolatier for the Best chocolate experience!

Love, love, love the city I will be more cautious about getting a bilingual tour as it took twice as long to do the tour
