Kseniia our tour guide was wonderful! A very informative walking tour. The tour length was great, feeling like we saw a lot of the city without being rushed off our feet! Would highly recommend this tour.

Kenny, with the red umbrella, was a helpful, fun, insightful story teller and ambassador for Ghent’s rich history. He’s an excellent, energetic guide, sharing just enough tips, knowledge of points of interest, and history to encourage our own exploration, after the completion of the 2 hr tour of this beautiful city. Fell in love with this city, and we were only there for 1 day. Highly recommend 😘👍🏼 Kenny covers serious ground.

Robin did a great job. The tour was informative and engaging. The two hours went by really quickly. This was my groups first Legends tour. I would highly recommend it to others. The cost posted on Trip Advisor covers the booking fee. You pay the guide directly at the end based on what you feel the tour was worth.
