About Tour Guide May A.
Hi there, and welcome to Belgium - the Heart of Europe!
Over the past years, I have been guiding guests and showing them different Belgian cities like Brussels, Bruges, Antwerp, and Ghent. My tours are designed not only to see the main sights but also to experience how locals live, eat, and drink. I was once a tourist here, and so I always strive to show guests what Belgium is like in the eyes of a tourist and at the same time share with them what it means to live here as a local.
I offer different kinds of tours depending on your wishes. From historical city walking tours to unique experiences such as beer-tasting, and chocolate-making workshops, and can even bring you to luxury shopping outlets too. Multiple-day city tours are also possible, where we can provide a car transfer as well.
My off-the-beaten-path tours will certainly make your trip to Belgium an unforgettable one and will surely help you appreciate more why this small, compact country sandwiched to bigger countries like France, Germany, and the Netherlands is worth visiting too. See you soon!
Reviews
“A Day trip to Brugge and Damme”
May was our guide in Brugge and Damme in mid September of this year. Our group are all seniors - all 65 years and older. We were able to cover all attractions in our itinerary. She coordinated the bus for our group on the tour date. There was a minor mechanical issue on the original assigned bus, however, she was able to coordinate the bus replacement. Flexibility on start times depending on our destinations. She made arrangements for a private boat tour in Brugge for our group.. May is very personable and has tremendous patience with our group. She, takes good care of her clients and tells stories about areas history. We can highly recommend May for your guided trip to Brugge and Damme.
