With a guide but on your own and at your own pace.

5.00A great guide to do on your own. Very informative and went to some unknown areas. If you aren’t sure where to go or what to see but also don’t want a tour with others this is definitely a good tour for you.
Fun and informative

5.00Great tour overall. Interesting history and stories. Shared ear phones with my wife so we had to walk close ❤️

5.00Well narrated history of Bruges while guiding through historical sites. App tracks your location in regard to where you should be and the map guides you back if you get off track. Audio automatically stops when time to move on to next site and the audio starts again automatically when you have arrived at the next talking point.
Interesting and engaging

4.00Great self guided tour. Interesting history, off the usual tourist trail, and some funny commentary.

5.00My wife and I really enjoyed exploring Bruges at our own pace with this audio tour, and there were some memorable stories that the narrator shared. Also, the app worked great in relation to the location-based services. We easily followed the map and the audio was triggered in the appropriate spots. In comparison to the packs of people wandering the city with tour guides, this was a much better fit for us.
Must do in Brugge
