About this experience

Discover Europe's best kept secret. Ghent is the perfect blend of history, culture, modernity, and walking, resulting in a city that is alive at all hours. We will walk through the historic center dominated by three towers, visit a fairytale castle, and let ourselves be carried away by the atmosphere of the old docks between locals and visitors to unveil the secrets framed by the Scheldt and Lys rivers. Will you join us?. Tailor-made. Whether you live the experience alone, as a couple, with family or friends, the tour is fully adaptable to the preferences and interests of the group. The guide will take you step by step through the history, culture, and idiosyncrasies of Ghent in your language, through a fun and light-hearted storytelling style. In addition, being a private tour, the attention is even closer and the guide will be able to advise you to make the most of your stay in the city.
