This is a boat trip in the historical heart of Ghent. It is an informative boat trip along the River Leie which takes you through the city of Ghent to let you discover the period of the Middle Ages. See the silent witnesses of the prestigious and glorious past: the beautiful fronts of houses of the Graslei (the medieval port), the big old meat-market as well as the rugged and steep walls of the Castle of Counts. Admire the only traditional remaining wooden house front.There are open and covered boats available and there will be guided commentary so you can enjoy the views while also learning about the city of Ghent.

it was really fun. exactly what you would expect. ghent is a fun town with a lot of history and this is a great way to experience it.
You can buy tickets at the stand in Ghent that this directs you to. It was a nice covered boat and good to get out of the freezing cold when we were there but it was only OK.
Great! Highly recommend.
good tour of inner city Ghent waterways
I was very lucky to be the only person on this particular tour. The guide was exceptional friendly, informative and helpful. Ghent views from the canals are beautiful and so much history. Just one minor point to watch for my itinerary indicated that tours start from 10.00 am but they actually start at 10.30.
