Private Belgium Tours and Day Trips

Explore our private tours in Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp and Brussels, each run in the city itself with a private guide who knows it well. These are tours in Belgium rather than day trips from Amsterdam, because Bruges and back in a day means around seven hours in the car and very little time on the ground. If you are staying in Belgium, arriving by cruise or building a longer trip, this is the better way to see these cities.

Private Riijksmuseum Tour Michael was our tour guide and he was truly exceptional. He took what would’ve been a great experience on its own to an amazing experience because of his help and commentary. He was great at pointing out details that we would’ve otherwise missed. This was our favorite part of our whole trip. Highly recommend him as your guide!

We booked a private tour with Stephan in Haarlem. I had been viewing his virtual tours for years, and it was a treat to meet him and have our own tour. We loved the pace of the tour, no rush, no crowds. We were able to walk many places in Haarlem, even had a beer in a church! I would highly recommend Stephan and his company.

Take this Rijksmuseum tour with Chris - he is the best!! This is hands down the best tour we have ever taken. Chris is a wonderful guide, his fantastic knowledge and story telling made the art of the Dutch Golden Age come alive for us. Very Highly recommended.

What a Great Tour to Look and Learn! This tour was impactful and exceptional. Out tour guide Guido - was articulate, knowledgable, and patient (this was important - because it was warm!). His ability to speak in depth about the history pre-war, and the angst and sorrow - excellent. Ending with the tour of the Anne Frank House and Annex - pulled it all together. We would highly recommend.

Hands down the best tour company we have ever worked with while traveling. They were helpful and in constant communication. We were specifically looking for tickets to the Anne Frank House and when they were sold out, we had to look for private tours. I have been to the Anne Frank House before ( house/ museum only), but this walking tour before the visit was one of the most relaxed yet informative experiences I have ever had. Chris catered the tour to our group. He was knowledgeable, patient and kind. I can’t say enough about this tour. It was well worth spending more to get the history before going to the Anne Frank House. My young adult children loved it as well! Working with the company was top notch- beyond anything we have experienced…and we have been on a ton of tours. When we return I plan to use this tour company again for other experiences.

Christian was an absolute delight as our tour guide. Super knowledgeable about Amsterdam and its history but did not turn the tour into a recitation of dates and facts. His real life experience living on the canals helped us to understand what day today life in Amsterdam looks like. Touring with Christian was like touring with a longtime friend delighted to show you his town. The kind of guy you want to have a beer with…so we did and that was great too! Highly recommend

We really enjoyed having a private tour so we could talk more about aspects of interest us. The guide also was a big help in showing us how to use the tram/bus system.
