Brussels Tours in Summer

This tour was very enjoyable. Staying at each destination for two or more days was a lot easier than having to pack up every night. Locations we visited were more varied than other Trafalgar tours I’ve taken which was also appreciated. I especially enjoyed the canal boat rides and the beautiful bridges and flowers. But the best part of our tour was our tour director . She went out of her way to make each and every guest feel comfortable and welcomed. She accommodated individual needs with grace and humour which helped make this trip a lovely experience. She’s a Trafalgar gem and will be a tough, tough act to follow!! Would love to travel with her again anytime!

The itinerary included history and important facts concerning where we where. The specialist tour guides were all very knowledgable and pleasant. They made each site interesting. There was also fun things to do at many sites. The trip was well balanced snd the people involved were great.

We loved the drives through country roads and the beautiful scenery. The variety of optional excursions was well-planned and appealed to nearly everyone on the tour. We felt it was a well-balanced itinerary with plenty of time on our own for shopping and dining and exploring. We never felt rushed and departure times were not too early and evening activity arrival times were not too late. Having 2 or more nights at each hotel made it a more relaxed trip.

We wished we could have longer time at Belgian . We were given 1 hour and 30 minutes to do so many things. Listened to the guide s orientation, find and queue up for foods, wait for the foods to be served then take some time to chew the foods, take some photos of that beautiful architecture buildings, queue up for WC. Then not enough to shop at that area.

We were delighted with our Tour Director who is passionate about travel and who imparted his many pearls of wisdom along the way, as well as expertly organising the various stops and meeting points and entertaining us with anecdotes and personal insights. He was always helpful and considerate towards the travellers in our group, making the whole experience very pleasant and memorable. Full credit also to the excellent and approachable local guides who provided us with comprehensive and clear explanations about the places and things they were showing us, often with a touch of humour or irony, answering any questions competently. Thanks are also due to our driver for his talent at maneuvering the bus in and out of some at times very tight spots and for always being in a good mood and delivering us safely to our destination. .

This was a great tour for me to end my trip after completing some other tours. Belgium was a beautiful surprise for me. It has so many World Heritage cities to see. Belgium has a rich history especially in regard to the Battle of Waterloo to the World Wars. It balances the modern world of NATO and EU Headquarters with the old town of Brussels. I must say, it does have the best chocolate in the world after doing some serious taste testing! Luxembourg is beautiful and regal whilst Holland has the beauty of windmills, farms, canals and beautiful art in one of the world’s most famous art galleries. The tour is at a good pace with all stays are for 2 nights at a time. A tour worth taking!
