VELTRA tours & activities, fun things to do

Long bus trip and short walking tour, but Bruges is wonderful!

We loved Bruges, and our guide Marianne, but thought that the guided tour was a bit too short, and that we did not stop enough along the way to the centre of Bruges. From other walking tours that we have done, we were expecting a bit more description about more of the many beautiful buildings there, and enough time to walk slowly and take photographs as we went. Marianne was very helpful, knowledgeable and patient, but appeared to have a schedule to keep to - to let us have 5 hours of free time to have lunch, shop, etc.

We would have preferred less free time and more time being 'guided' around this city.

Trip to Brugge

We have a very nice time in Brugge. Tour guide Elza was very friendly and helpful.

Amazing Bruges

Although I have a rough morning with the rude young lady whom carrying the board sign “ BRUGES” that morning , and lucky she was not our tour guide . Our tour guide is a nice and pleasant lady name's Mary Anne. It was a very wonderful experienced in Bruges. I am impressed , all of Bruges is a feast for the eyes. On a Summer's day it is just heaven. Even though it was raining the day we were there, it was still gorgeous places, worth to come and see. great building around for great pictures old city built around a series of canals and waterways Pretty, quaint and picturesque. We tried the local food as Mary Anne recommended . Local Waffle, home made chocolate, local mussels. As we choose for the long walk tour , we were then guided again by the local guide. His information about all the historical buildings really interesting . Beautiful architecture and tons of history.This is an excellent place to visit.

We were unfortunate to be there on a rather wet day. Would love to see it again in better conditions

I knew already Bruges and wanted to show it to my wife. As I was going to a congress in Amsterdam I took the opportunity to make an excursion to Bruges by City Discovery. My wife was truly delighted with the beauty of the city. Unfortunately we had only four hours to see the whole town (one for lunch), beeing impossible to visit museums or churches. As usual, the Belgian food was very good, especially the mussels.
The trip was tiring - 3 ½ hours by bus each way; fortunately the guide was excellent and gave us good information about the places we passed.
