Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"“Ben” is an excellent tour guide He is well informed and cares about Ghent. This shows throughout your journey through town. He takes the time to explain history and attempts to blend time and architecture to the cultural changes of the town and its governance. From churches to guilds to city hall. He takes you through the changes to Ghent over the past century as it comes into its heyday as a port town. He can also shows you places to eat and shop that are authentic to the town and history. Highly recommend. "

"Very enjoyable tour with Benedikt/Ben in Ghent. He was right on time, very friendly, and spoke English well so there were no problems in communication. He had an obvious passion for Ghent and for doing these tours. He showed us a variety of places in and around the central area of Ghent during our time with him. He also had numerous suggestions for us for the rest of our time in Ghent. We definitely recommend Ben. "
