Amazing trip from Paris to Brussels and Brugges!
We had a great trip with our driver Mohammed and tour guide, Cristina Ortega. We visited Brussels and Brugges where we tried some famous local cuisine, ate some amazing waffles and had lots of incredible chocolate. Cristina did an amazing job in giving us the history of the sites, keeping us organized and on a schedule. She is an amazing guide and would highly recommend booking a trip through Amigo tours and request Cristina Ortega!
