Great walking tour with Christophe. Started well as flights and transfers were delayed, and was able to communicate via text with Christophe to push back tour by a half an hour. He was great communicating, and once on the tour as it was private - he was able to cater what he showed us to our likes and interests - even ended the tour with a Belgium Beer. Christophe also gave us recommendations on what to see and where to eat - and he was spot on with all of the recommendations.
