STEP BACK IN TIME

I'll guide you to amazing places

Spend half a day exploring Cashew Ridge Park by foot. This trek is an excellent choice if you don’t have time for a full-day or overnight trip. The early morning tour starts early enough to enjoy the sounds of the forest waking up. The afternoon tour finishes at dusk, so you can enjoy the quiet calm of the nighttime forest. Bring your own food and water. As your tour guide, I’ll help you disconnect from your everyday world, so you can immerse yourself in nature and reconnect with yourself.

Bruges, often referred to as the "Venice of the North," is a fairytale-like city in Belgium that offers a delightful blend of history, culture, and charm. While known for its romantic canals and medieval architecture, Bruges is also a fantastic destination for families. From captivating museums to whimsical boat rides, the city boasts an array of family-friendly activities that cater to all ages.


  • Time Travel for All Ages:

Step into the past at the Church of Our Lady, home to the famous Madonna and Child statue made by Michelangelo, rumored to be the only statue to leave Italy during his lifetime.


  • Navigating Bruges' Canals:

Embark on a family-friendly boat tour through Bruges' picturesque canals. Children will be captivated by the enchanting views as they cruise past historic buildings and under charming bridges. The gentle motion of the boat and the informative guides make for a memorable outing.

  • Choco-Story: A Sweet Adventure:

Indulge your family's sweet tooth at Choco-Story, the chocolate museum in Bruges. Discover the fascinating journey of cocoa from bean to bar through interactive displays, workshops, and of course, chocolate tastings. It's an educational and delicious experience for kids and adults alike.


  • Picnics and Swans:

Relax at Minnewater Park, where the serene Minnewater Lake and its resident swans create a peaceful atmosphere. This park is ideal for picnics, leisurely strolls, and a chance for the kids to feed the swans and ducks.
