Tasty and sunny afternoon in Gent - Chocolate Tour in Gent is a great choice and Nick is a wonderful guide! You don't get just interesting info about chocolate and local chocolatiers, but also about historical buildings that you pass along during the tour. He is very passionate and he has an answer for every question, so you can ask him anything about the city. He also provided us with tips about local restaurants and bars. It was a sunny day (lucky us), so everything was perfect! Thanks a lot, Nick, we had a wonderful afternoon ! :)
