"Our tour with Arn was a great experience. My family of five thoroughly enjoyed tasting the local specialties all while gaining insightful knowledge about Ghent and Flanders. Arn delivered a highly personalised tour and was a pleasure to converse with. I highly recommend!"
"We enjoyed our tour with Arn as he shared all things Ghent with us, including his mother's Flemish stew recipe!! The tour was a good mix of tastings and history at a comfortable pace to really enjoy the surroundings. We highly recommend Arn, who is an original Ghentian."
