    What a great tour of Bruges. Mark our boat captain was extremely personable. He made certain his passengers were safe and that they enjoyed themselves. Bruges is Mark’s home town and he knows everything about every building and bridge that we encountered along our boat tour. Boats are up to date, very safe to get on and off of, and clean. It’s a well spent 35 minutes that I highly recommend.

    Arrived with my 2 daughters on a very windy and miserable day in Bruges. It wasn’t a busy period for the Boat tour but the guys running it were still in good spirits and very friendly. Despite the bad weather the boat driver still took pictures of us 3 and the girls pretending to drive the boat and was very friendly and knowledgable with stats on the tour.
