It was fantastic, we loved the listening devices and how easy it was to use them. We loved the interactive games to play. Also loved the chocolate demonstration and of course trying the chocolate that was shown to us how they make it. There was also 4 different types of chocolate to try. Spent lots in the gift all reasonably priced. Lovely chocolate. X”

It’s only 40 minutes, so I had plenty more time to explore key sites after the tour. Lots of time slots to choose from, so very flexible. If you are travelling like me, this will work very well!”

What a wonderful, laid back way to see the sights!”

Explore Ghent by quality mountain bike on a small-group tour featuring street art, local stories, suburbs, parks, and lesser-known city corners.

“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 :).”
