Belgium Tours and Trips for Seniors

Our cycling tour of the Western Front through France and Belgium was great. The scenery of the countryside that we cycled through was beautiful, the towns we stayed in were enjoyable, and the World War One sites were educational (but sombre). We stayed in the upgraded hotels and enjoyed all of them - no complaints. We selected the self-guided tour and the GPS routes were easy to follow and we never had an issue with navigation. We chose the self-guided tour, which worked out well as we had spectacular weather. However, if the weather had been cold and rainy, the self-guided tour would be less enjoyable as you're on your own - no option to skip the cycling and get transported to the next town. Something to consider for future cycling trips.

I've now been on five Expat Explore trips and I have to say Ricardo was the most amazing guide yet! His knowledge of history and his willingness to share it with us in such an eloquent way, not monotone or in a a boring fashion as some guides, just the opposite, you wouldn't want him to stop talking! I learned so much from him about the culture of the places we were visiting! Not to mention his skills at making sure everyone was informed of the next days activities, his patience, and his ability to make everyone comfortable, especially on some long drive days! I can only hope I get Ricardo on another Expat trip!

The days were full of enjoyable and educational activities (walking tours, museums, art galleries, misc. tourist attractions, boat cruises, etc.). We saw a lot of interesting things, cities, places, learned a lot of history, and enjoyed scenic beauty of these countries. I great tour for a photography buff!

The trip was absolutely amazing. We had a great time cycling and met some wonderful people. The boat was perfect for the group. The food was excellent along with the service. Absolutely would recommend to active folks who are looking for an adventure.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Country Roads of Belgium, Luxembourg & Netherlands tour. The itinerary was beautifully balanced between famous highlights and smaller hidden gems, and everything felt very well organised. We especially loved the charming towns, local culture and comfortable pace of the tour. Our travel director and driver were excellent and made the whole journey enjoyable and stress-free. It truly felt like a premium travel experience from start to finish. We came home with fantastic memories and would gladly travel with Insight Vacations again.

Fun group to ride and travel with. Great staff and great food. Weather could have been warmer but who can control that. And headwinds were tough. Maybe do Bruges to Amsterdam for more tailwind??
