Gent's tourist bureau has English-speaking staff and is open daily. Tours with the guide association Gidsenbond van Genten can be booked here. Another good resource for Gent is an online "urban dissection kit," www.use-it.be. This site (with English translations) is geared for students and other finger-on-the-pulse travelers, with write-ups on Gent's bars, music stores and clubs, cultural institutions, inexpensive restaurants, and the like.
