Luxembourg was nice. We had Diego again as our tour guide. We had him in our tour to Ghent. As usual he was very informative & nice. The only thing is that we were not provided with an earphone & radio. So you really have to catch up with the group if he is making commentaries & providing infos while walking. The restaurant recommendation, UpDown was’nt good ‘coz it took them 45 mins to serve our order for hamburger & croquette. So it lessen our time to explore Luxembourg. Then we proceeded to Dinant, such a magical place. We were really in awe as to how beautiful this place is. A must visit.
