Fue muy buena, los guías son increíbles y te ayudan el todo. Respecto a la excursión se puede ver ambas ciudades en un día. Si que es cierto que Brujas se nos quedó un poco corto pero vimos lo más importante de la ciudad. No me arrepiento en absoluto en haber realizado la excursión, la recomendaría sin dudarlo. Translate this opinion into English.

It was excellent; the guides were amazing and very helpful. Regarding the tour, you can see both cities in one day. It's true that we had a little less time in Bruges, but we saw the most important sights. I absolutely don't regret taking the tour; I would recommend it without hesitation. Opinion translated.

No recomiendo esta actividad ya que visitas dos ciudades preciosas pero no disfrutas ninguna de ellas, ves las dos ciudades a la carrera, como te pares a hacer una foto pierdes al guía. Nosotros cogimos la actividad de la barca que estuvo bien pero eso supone que ya no te da tiempo comer. Brujas es preciosa pero un poco masificada. Después en Gante el grupo era muy numeroso y no sé escuchaba bien la radio guia supongo por la distancia

I don't recommend this activity because you visit two beautiful cities but don't really enjoy either of them. You rush through both cities, and if you stop to take a photo, you lose track of the guide. We opted for the boat trip, which was nice, but that meant you didn't have time for lunch. Bruges is beautiful but a bit overcrowded. Later in Ghent, the group was very large, and the radio guide was difficult to hear, I suppose because of the distance.

Hola. Quizá no es lo ideal realizar las 2 ciudades el mismo día, pero cuando el tiempo apremia uds tienen a Raquel y a Pascal para venir al auxilio y mas cuando son 11 y ½ horas de compartires. Raquel es una extraordinaria y atinada guía que te hace reír con sus ocurrencias "Frikie' El Sr Pascal ni un frenazo en ningún momento. En fin nuestro agradecimiento eterno. El carrerón es por cuenta y culpa nuestra por el tiempo estrecho. Saludos afectuosos para todos. Jose Alirio y compañía Translate this opinion into English.

Hello. Perhaps visiting both cities in the same day isn't ideal, but when time is short, you have Raquel and Pascal to come to the rescue, especially when it's an 11.5-hour trip. Raquel is an extraordinary and insightful guide who makes you laugh with her quirky antics. Mr. Pascal never once hesitated. In short, our eternal gratitude. The long drive was entirely our fault due to the tight schedule. Warm regards to all. Jose Alirio and company Opinion translated. Show original.

El conductor Jonathan también muy correcto. Todo hizo que fuese una excelente actividad. Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was very well-structured in terms of punctuality, guided time, and free time. The guides, Sofía and Guiomar, especially the latter, were very kind, competent, and friendly.

Nos hospedamos en Bruselas y la salida fue un poco mala debido al tráfico rodado. Comenzamos la visita a Brujas y fue expendida ( mucho fue por nuestros guías, tanto Aris como Gabi nos hicieron transportarnos al pasado con sus explicaciones, con sus tonos de voz agradables y frases muy comprensivas), en Brujas nos faltó un poco más de tiempo libre,( cierto es que cogimos una excursión en barca por el río, y comer también nos hizo perder un tiempo precioso) Recomiendo un dia para cada ciudad. Translate this opinion into English.

We stayed in Brussels and leaving was a bit of a hassle due to the traffic. We started our visit in Bruges and it was excellent (much of it thanks to our guides, both Aris and Gabi, who transported us back in time with their explanations, pleasant tones of voice, and very understanding phrases). In Bruges, we could have used a bit more free time (it's true that we took a boat trip on the river, and lunch also took up precious time). I recommend one day for each city. Opinion translated.

Salimos de la Estación central de Bruselas a las 8.30. Recorrimos Brujas por la mañana con el guía y tuvimos 2 hs libres para almuerzo o seguir recorriendo. Luego nos encontramos en el punto de encuentro para salir a Gante, que queda a unos 45 minutos. Recorrimos Gante con el guía y nos quedó 1,5 hs para seguir recorriendo por nuestra cuenta. Luego volvimos a Bruselas. El guía sabe mucho y explica súper bien todo el recorrido, incluso haciendo chistes. Recomendamos a Gaby!! Translate this opinion into English.

We left Brussels Central Station at 8:30. We toured Bruges in the morning with the guide and had two hours of free time for lunch or further exploration. Then we met at the designated meeting point to depart for Ghent, which is about 45 minutes away. We explored Ghent with the guide and then had an hour and a half to explore on our own. Afterward, we returned to Brussels. The guide is very knowledgeable and explains everything extremely well, even cracking jokes. We highly recommend Gaby! Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour por Brujas y Gante estuvo excelente. Son dos ciudades muy bonitas que conocimos de la mano de Ramon en Brujas y Juanan en Gante. Ambos recorridos fueron muy amenos y se podía apreciar los puntos mas emblematicos de la ciudad. Fue mi primera experiencia en un tour guiado de este tipo y me gustó muchísimo. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour of Bruges and Ghent was excellent. They are two very beautiful cities, which we explored with Ramon in Bruges and Juanan in Ghent. Both tours were very enjoyable, and we were able to see the most emblematic landmarks of each city. It was my first experience on a guided tour of this type, and I loved it. Opinion translated.

Viajar y conocer lugares a través de un tour no solo depende de las ciudades que visites y de su historia, sino de cómo te lo cuenten. Y aquí nos recibe Juanan. Información veraz pero con el matiz divertido y además cuando le preguntas, el tío sabe sin ser pretencioso. Brujas y Gante son perlas. El autobús cómodo y limpio, los trayectos no muy largos. Gracias a Juanan , a Luz y a Patri por su saber, su simpatía y su generosidad. Cuídenles que no es fácil encontrar este nivel de profesionalidad. Translate this opinion into English.

Traveling and exploring places on a tour depends not only on the cities you visit and their history, but also on how the stories are told. And here we are, greeted by Juanan. He provides accurate information with a touch of humor, and when you ask him questions, he's knowledgeable without being pretentious. Bruges and Ghent are gems. The bus is comfortable and clean, and the journeys aren't too long. Thanks to Juanan, Luz, and Patri for their knowledge, friendliness, and generosity. Take care of them; this level of professionalism isn't easy to find. Opinion translated. Show original.

Bonita excursión para visitar por encima en un mismo día Brujas y Gante. Tour por el centro de las 2 ciudades viendo lo principal y luego tienes tiempo libre. Si quieres visitarlas con más tiempo y calma, esta excursión se te quedará corta. Isa, la guía, muy divertida. La excursión en barco por Brujas merece la pena, pero se hace en el tiempo libre y perdimos unos 20 minutos en la cola porque había mucha gente. El punto en Brujas donde te deja y recoge el bus, un poco lejos del centro. Translate this opinion into English.

A nice day trip to see Bruges and Ghent. The tour takes you through the city centers of both cities, covering the main sights, and then you have free time. If you want to explore them at a more leisurely pace, this tour will feel too short. Isa, the guide, was very entertaining. The boat trip in Bruges is worthwhile, but it's done during free time, and we lost about 20 minutes in line because it was so crowded. The bus drop-off and pick-up point in Bruges is a bit far from the city center. Opinion translated. Show original.

Los guías son buenos, y el recorrido muy interesante. Pero creo que no está bien pensado que el punto de encuentro en Brujas esté a casi media hora del centro, donde te dejan, y el camino no es fácil de recordar. Sería más práctico quedar en el centro y volver juntos al bus. Translate this opinion into English.

The guides are good, and the tour is very interesting. But I think it's poorly thought out that the meeting point in Bruges is almost half an hour from the city center, where they drop you off, and the route isn't easy to remember. It would be more practical to meet in the center and walk back to the bus together. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy recomendable la excursión Brujas-Gante. Nuestras guías fueron Isa, Irene y Marta y repetirían con ellas. Super atentas y muy majas. El viaje dio para todo, el recorrido por Brujas, la historia, la comida, recomendaciones donde comer o comprar lo tradicional, infaltable el chocolate, y tiempo libre. Luego Gante, lo mismo, un recorrido estupendo, el infaltable la cerveza y tiempo libre para recorrer considerando las recomendaciones hechas. Translate this opinion into English.

The Bruges-Ghent excursion is highly recommended. Our guides were Isa, Irene, and Marta, and I would definitely book with them again. They were incredibly attentive and friendly. The trip had everything: a tour of Bruges, learning about its history, enjoying the food, recommendations on where to eat or buy traditional items (including the essential chocolate), and plenty of free time. Then Ghent was equally fantastic, with a great tour, the obligatory beer, and free time to explore, taking into account the recommendations they had made. Opinion translated. Show original.

La experiencia en Brujas y Gante fue muy interesante. Es una salida intensa y muy completa, incluso diría que faltó tiempo para disfrutarlo más. Los guías (Ramón y Isa) que nos acompañaron aportaron detalles y conocimientos que me parecieron importantes para situarnos en lo que estábamos conociendo de la historia de Bélgica y que involucrarse la historia europea. Muchísimas gracias Translate this opinion into English.

The experience in Bruges and Ghent was very interesting. It was an intense and very comprehensive trip; I'd even say we didn't have enough time to enjoy it more.

Experiencia maravillosa. Guiomar y Ramón fueron unos guías excelentes. Interesantísimas sus explicaciones con simpatía y seriedad a la vez. El bus fantástico y supercómodo fue siempre puntual en cada punto de encuentro. Pensábamos que no llegábamos a tiempo a la salida, y sólo con una llamada recibimos soporte por teléfono inmediato. Gante preciosa y Brujas especialmente espectacular. Nos encantó. A las 19.30 estábamos ya de vuelta en Bruselas para cenar tan pichis. Superrecomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

A wonderful experience. Guiomar and Ramón were excellent guides. Their explanations were fascinating, delivered with both friendliness and seriousness. The bus was fantastic and super comfortable, always punctual at every meeting point. We were worried we wouldn't make it to the departure point on time, but with just one call, we received immediate phone support. Ghent was beautiful, and Bruges was especially spectacular. We loved it. By 7:30 pm, we were back in Brussels, ready for a lovely dinner. Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Bien, excepto por Isabel la chica que nos guió en brujas, mi esposo y yo somos de la 3ra edad y nuestro nieto de 16 años,de regreso nos retrasamos 10 min porque nos desviamos un poco, Isa me marco y me preguntó que en cuanto tiempo llegaríamos le dije que en 5 min, pero cuando llegamos ya se habían marchado sin nosotros y mi nieto se preocupó mucho y entro en pánico. Afortunadamente busqué apoyo y lo encontré con el guía Diego quien nos llevó a Gante. Isa nos abandonó y no me contestó mi llamada

Well, except for Isabel, the girl who guided us in Bruges, my husband and I are senior citizens, and our 16-year-old grandson was also there. On the way back, we were 10 minutes late because we took a slight detour. Isa called me and asked how long it would take us to get there. I told her 5 minutes, but when we arrived, they had already left without us, and my grandson got very worried and panicked. Fortunately, I sought help and found it in the guide Diego, who took us to Ghent. Isa abandoned us and didn't answer my calls.

Los guías se esfuerzan por mantener al grupo unido, pero es responsabilidad de cada participante seguir el ritmo de los demás y no perderse. Aun así, le pasamos nota de los comentarios a nuestro equipo local para intentar seguir mejorando, también en este aspecto del servicio. Translate this opinion into English.

Todo bien con Ramón. Muy bien explicado y muy amable recomendando lugares para comer. Lo único q si haces las dos ciudades juntas no acabas de disfrutar de la ciudad de brujas y Gante. Nos llovió y fue un poco peor. Hicimos el barco en brujas porque no nos dieron otra opción desde civitatis ( cosa q no me gusto) xq al tener tan poco tiempo no te da tiempo a ver la ciudad luego por libre y a comer en 1hora y media q nos dejan. Translate this opinion into English.

Everything was great with Ramón. He explained everything very well and was very helpful in recommending places to eat. The only thing is that if you visit both cities together, you don't fully enjoy Bruges and Ghent. It rained on us, which made things a bit worse. We took the boat trip in Bruges because Civitatis didn't offer us any other option (which I didn't like), because with so little time, you don't have enough time to explore the city on your own afterward and eat in the hour and a half they allow.

Una experiencia muy interesante. Intensa porque ves mucho durante todo el tiempo. La visita a Brujas una maravilla, nuestra guía Giomar nos descubrió todos los secretos y curiosidades de allí. El paseo en barca interesante, no es que sea algo excepcional, pero es una manera diferente de apreciar Brujas desde los canales. Gante una ciudad totalmente diferente, nuestro guía Juanam nos enseñó lo más interesante del lugar. Quizá lo peor el moverse en autocar por los atascos con lluvia. Translate this opinion into English.

A very interesting experience. Intense because you see so much in such a short time. The visit to Bruges was wonderful; our guide, Giomar, revealed all its secrets and curiosities. The boat trip was interesting; it wasn't anything exceptional, but it was a different way to appreciate Bruges from the canals. Ghent is a completely different city, and our guide, Juanam, showed us the most interesting sights. Perhaps the worst part was traveling by coach due to traffic jams in the rain. Opinion translated.
