Patrick’s knowledge and communication skills were excellent. He pointed out some interesting places and items which would have been missed with either a group tour or a less engaged guide. His use of language was very good and we felt comfortable with our guide and our tour.

I can’t think of a better person to show you around town and explain what you are seeing. He really listens when you explain what you want to see and adjusts itinerary accordingly. Very attentive to my friend’s minor mobility issues as well. Sean wanted us to love Belgium and by the end of the tour we did. Thanks Sean for a wonderful evening.
