“This was such a cool way to experience Ghent! We would've never been able to see these sights without an insider. The bikes were also excellent quality and a lot of fun to ride. Christof was a very fun and entertaining guide, and he gave excellent recommendations for places to eat/drink/visit after the tour too. The polaroid photo, water bottle, and photos from the tour were also an excellent touch. I will be doing this tour again next time I visit Ghent, as I'm sure Chris will have more fun stuff up his sleeve :).”
