Really great day out. Although it was very foggy, Dinant was beautiful in the mist. The tour in Luxemburg was short and with the perfect amount of time to walk around. The guide spoke very good English ( a bit fast but great accent) I recommend this tour

I loved Luxembourg it was a nice day trip. Our guide Jan Van was funny and knows a lot ,gave a lot of information about the city. Our bus was comfortable and our driver was experienced. Thanks for the nice trip

Stefan was incredible. So funny and engaging! The bus had ample space and was comfy! Luxembourg was beyond incredible and blew my expectations out of the water! Highly recommend

The travel was excellent, but there was a delay to chance the bus due to a problem in the heat system of the car. It would be interesting to check everything in the bus.

Great value for money. Dinant is 1000 times more beautiful than Luxembourg.
