I did the walking tour with Legends both in Antwerp (Luc D) and Ghent (Lisa). Luc D was knowledge, funny and gave quick overviews about the history, things to do and places to visit. He was also the first tour guide who indulged in an active quiz, handing out little toffees to people. At the end the person with the maximum right answers, won a prize too! Excellent way to keep the group engaged. In Ghent, Lisa was very knowledgeable about the city and covered the key points of interest. Overall, both experiences were positive.
