Miguel is an excellent tour guide. He took great care of each of us and even gave us his number in case we got lost, so he could help. Despite our large group, he managed the tour seamlessly. The day before, I joined another tour from Brussels to Ghent, and the experience was the complete opposite. The tour guide was awful—we got lost and couldn’t reach him, leaving us behind from the tour for an hour. It took me a lot of time to contact the company and get help. It was a nightmare.

We had a fabulous day with Miguel! Yea it’s a long day, yes you spend time on a bus, but we all know that going into the trip right? Especially if you read the itinerary prior! Dinant is absolutely stunning, we were there in the morning so it was great to grab a coffee and pastry and walk around town or up to the citadel. Luxembourg was also fabulous, with plenty of history. Once again thank you Miguel for a well organised informative day!

It was a very interesting visit. Well organized, we left on time and our guide David was very kind and there was a good balance with the information he gave both in English and Spanish. The places we visited were worthwhile and as a detail when we returned to Brussels they changed the route and we went along the river so we could enjoy the views of the road of "love". So everything went very well and I recommend the excursion.

perfect amount of time in each location. I really enjoyed having a walking tour of the area and then having free time to explore.

Luxembourg and Dinant extremely interesting to visit, guide and driver super helpful. Very satisfied!
