Brussels to Bruges

We had a lovely time on the Gandalf, piloted by the eccentric and charming Hans, his pleasant spouse Meiyan, and their sweet and sleepy dog Jala Shayin. The barge was well-organized and the food was excellent and plentiful; I appreciated not having to pay extra for vegetarian meals. The guide, John, was very knowledgeable and led us through Belgium’s wonderful bicycle path system. We were lucky to have great weather for cycling throughout the whole trip, sunny with highs around 16 each day. John warned us that the wind would be in our faces the whole trip, but it wasn’t too bad. We had a great time and would be happy to use Boat Bike Tours again.
