“Our tour guide, Louise was awesome with in-depth knowledge of the city's history and giving us a quick look at probably every important attraction of Bruges on a rainy day, his explanation of the entire city was not only interesting but also detailed. We had quite a few questions regarding the languages spoken by locals as well as the history and he was able to answer all our inquiries quite well which made the 30mins really worthwhile especially when we hd only one night to spend in Bruges and didn't have enough time to see every museum and attraction at length. I would reccomend this bike carriage tour to all…”

Also happy to point out places worth eating at during my stay when I asked. Great kickstart to my visit.”

“Soren picked us up from the hotel bang on time and provided us with lots of information that was really interesting.
