Terrific tour
"My private tour with Artur was well worth it. He was full of information and brought to life so many historical events."

Super fun (and yummy) tour with Patrick!
"It was great to finally meet Patrick in person after having met him virtually on a walking tour of Bruges during the pandemic! Patrick was responsive to questions from the start and helped us land on this amazing tasting tour that was truly enjoyable (and filling)! We walked and drank + ate our way through the city, all the stops delicious and informative. Patrick is just as warm and kind in person as he was on screen. I love his laugh (and you will, too)! Thanks so much for a fun and yummy day out in Bruges!"

Fascinating tour with Igor!
"We had a wonderful time in Bruges with Igor! He has extensive knowledge of the city and its history, and he shared that knowledge in fascinating and relatable stories. He pointed us to some great chocolate shops, explained the history of Michelangelo’s “Madonna and Child,” and helped us understand how access to the sea contributed to the growth of Bruges. He was also very gracious in responding to our tourist requests, such as the best way back to the train station, and where to purchase headache medicine. Igor made me feel that I was in the most interesting history class ever! Highly recommend! "

Awesome Tour with Xavier!
"There were 4 of us in our group with Xavier. We very much appreciated his insight into Bruges as we explored it for the first time. Great information about the city and its history. We were able to see and learn a lot about the city. Insights into the city were very helpful for us. He provided an extensive list of restaurants when asked. We did go to two he suggested…..L’Estaminet (great place and definitely felt more local) and Grand Cafe De Republiek (another great option that we were grateful for the recommendation)."

Great Ghent Tour!
"We enjoyed our tour with Arn as he shared all things Ghent with us, including his mother's Flemish stew recipe!! The tour was a good mix of tastings and history at a comfortable pace to really enjoy the surroundings. We highly recommend Arn, who is an original Ghentian (?). Lol"

"Ann was just the perfect body für USA ad a family of four including two kids 11 and 9 years of age. As a talent in all - multi lingual and expert in history, local secrets and culinary gems - Ann made our stay in Brügge a wonderful adventure in all of the above. Thank you very much again from here, Best wishes, we will die be back Chris"

Ann the Awesome
"Ann was a great guide for my family of four, including 2 teens. She shared history, culture, and great food with us during our 3 hour tour together. She even brought us some delicious chocolate from a favorite local shop, and helped us find a holiday ornament too. Highly recommend touring with Ann!"

History & Humor
"We had a wonderful private tour with Martin who shared all things Bruges with us! A combination of history, anecdotes, culture, and food tastings provided a great introduction to our stay in Bruges. Martin was interesting and made history come alive. Would highly recommend!!"

Perfect time
"We had a great experience with Ben as our tourguide and enjoyed his expertise, humour and recommendations for places to go very much. He is very fond of European history and art, but also knows about the current hot spots in the city. As he loves to travel himself, he has a fine sense for an authentic experience. Thank you for sharing your time with us!!!"
