So, hong kong is all skyscrapers, crazy busy, neon lights. Bruges is like stepping into different world completely. Suddenly you're surrounded by these old bricks buildings and canals everywhere.
I'll say its chilled place to be.
Seamless service and comfy transportation.

From the moment we boarded the coach, it was clear this wasn't your average bus ride. We maximized our canal strolls and chocolate shop raids. In my opinion this tour is a winner.
This trip stays with you long after you leave!

If I could suggest one improvement, it would be to extend the time at certain stops, especially at the time at certain stops, especially at the church of our lady, as there's so much to admire there. Overall it was fantastic experience and I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Belgium.
