Toni P.: This travel guide is easy to use and has maps, accommodations, dining, tourist attractions, etc. I was however disappointed that everything is in back and white. For the price I expected at least a few color photos or maps. I also ordered a Frommer’s Travrl Guide for the same region and it had color maps plus a fold out map. I also felt that the recommended lodging accommodations left a bit to be desired when nicer hotels/options were available. I have always been told that Rick Steves had the travel guides, but I’m not sure I agree.

kw: We used primarily Rick's advice for help in determining our Europe trip, the Belgium portion ended up being only 2 nights in Bruges, with an afternoon side trip in Ghent. We supplemented his ratings with minimal outside advice (some from the online travel forum on his page).

Sandra Pointon: Rick Steves is my travel guru and he doesn't disappoint in this guide. Hope it is updated soon however as it was written pre-Covid and several places I checked had closed.

katherinewilliams: It's a pretty good guide, if outdated since the pandemic. Many of the restaurants recommended either weren't that great or closed, so we found our own better ones. It did help us prioritize our sight seeing, and encouraged us to go to Bruges and Ghent both of which were really wonderful. The tours aren't on the app, so we had to read them out loud to each other.

Book Club Girl: At the last minute, I purchased Rick’s guide for Belgium as an E-book. I have always relied on his print copies for travel but I didn’t have enough time to wait for shipping before leaving. Having spent the last week in Belgium, I must admit it wa worth every penny and the E-book was so convenient because it was on my phone. As usual, his advice is spot on and definitely helped us to maximize our time in Belgium.
