Belgium Tours in September 2026

There should not have been optional tours so close to the start where there was not enough time to arrange other options, for those time frames, for those who did not want to pay extra. Loved the tours myself.

Just returned from BoEEurope trip on Sep 23. Good trip, exactly what we wanted. (Husband and I have traveled 40 years, backpacking to luxury cruises.) This bus tour (E.Europe) offered jam-packed/fast, enough free time, at a good price. Clean/newish, convenient, not-luxury hotels. Guide was knowledgeable and very professional, managed 47 people well. Is this one for you? Good itinerary for new-to-Europe who want to go everywhere fast and reasonable price. OR, for returning travelers, we liked the itinerary and chose own free-time activities (e.g., museums, etc.) The tour group? English-speaking countries (Au, NZ, Ph, Sri, Mex, Can, US, UK), more than half in 4,6,8 person groups, few older couples, too large to get to know many in 10 days. Long days on bus and too much time spent loading, unloading people and luggage. Bus was new and driver was excellent. NOT a twenty-something party group.

We had a great time traveling with fellow expats! Our tour leader, Inga and driver, Victor were exceptionally good and personable! They are true professionals at what they do! This is my third trip with Expat Explore because I enjoy making the most of my time and am able to see the highlights of each area with the group and helpful tips for my free time to make the best vacation possible!

You spend a great deal of time on the bus - whether it's riding, getting on and off, or unloading baggage. It seemed like the trip was more convenient for the bus driver than the passengers. The bus frequently dropped us off in an inconvenient location causing us to walk quite a distance. The issue that exacerbated every problem was that it was a very large group (45 plus passengers). If I traveled with this company again, I would opt for a smaller group of 20 or so. Expat may not offer that option. The itinerary was very good, as were the guides.

Good routes, once system explained & trialed for a day,very easy to use. Good countryside travel, safe & picturesque. Got lost only.once. Boat crew terrific and food was absolutely first class (they did need another toaster at breakfast however).

The whole trip was amazing! We had the best tour guide and bus driver! Gabi and Sam were wonderful. Gabi was very informative, helpful, and professional. Sam is an amazing driver, very personable, and a lovely man.
