Exciting and entertaining evening tour through the mysterious Bruges with Hilde Baele

5.00The tour was very entertaining, exciting, and exceptionally interesting. We particularly liked that the content was clearly different from the morning tour. This way, we were able to learn many new and fascinating stories about the darker history of Bruges. Hilde conducted the tour excellently. She speaks German very well, excellent English, as well as naturally French and Dutch. Since we booked the tour in English, we were able to follow her explanations without any problems. She told the stories very vividly and managed to convey history in an entertaining way. We can wholeheartedly recommend this evening tour and especially Hilde as a guide. An exciting and very successful tour through the night-time Bruges!
Best night tour!

5.00We got to know the 'dark sides' of Bruges with our guide Martin. It was extremely interesting, amusing and entertaining. A great and likeable narrator! We don't want to miss the two hours. Absolutely recommended if you want to have a guided tour beyond the mundane!
