Gregg! Was kind, funny, patient, cultured and knowledgeable. He made us feel like one of our friends was showing us his home town. This was the first time visiting Brussels and thanks to Gregg we had an extraordinary experience. We were able to experience all, culture, food, history and fun. I highly recommend this tour but definitely request Gregg he’s great!

Sebastian was very knowledgeable in his tour of the city. My wife and I are both in our early seventies and he was so respectful of our age and physical capabilities. He never lost his patience with us and treated us as family. This tour was really worth participating in. Excellent job Sebastian! You are a tour guide hero. Viator - this guy really makes your company shine!

I cannot begin to express our deep appreciation and gratitude for such a wonderful day trip with Andrea Mogni to Bruges. Myself, my daughter and sister felt so comfortable and well cared for from start to finish. Andreas knowledge and insight into every step of our day was so impressive. We left feeling our day knowing we learned so much more than any other tourist exploring Brussels and Bruges. His depth and knowledge of architecture, history, overall life in Belgium and beyond is endless. He was also very watchful over us from the moment we walked out of our hotel to the train station and all the way to/from Bruges. We are forever grateful to have connected with Andrea and feel like he is now a dear friend. We hope that our paths will cross again in the future. Your organization is very lucky to have such an amazing tour guide working with you.
