Inga the guide was great however this is nowhere near a premium culinary tour and certainly not value for money. Standing in the street in the rain. No table reservations Only 1 drink. Sharing frites and 1 chocolate each summed it up. We have done these tours across many cities in Europe and this was by far the most disappointing we have ever done. Maybe Bruges should just not try and offer this type of tour.

Xavier was extremely knowledgeable. The private tour captured the hidden jewels of Bruges. We were well taken care of, and the food choices were perfect! We hope to return with our family.

Xavier was a very good guide. The tour is geared towards foodies, and stresses quality over quantity. Order of tastings are presented as courses of a meal, which results in some extra walking. We especially appreciated the neighborhood cheese shop. I would suggest that the host bring (or you bring yourself) some cut pieces of baguette and a bottle of water to cleanse your palate between the tastings. Be aware that many of the tasting visits require you to stand outside on the street.

Our guide was very knowledgeable both about the food we were enjoying and the city itself. In addition to sharing information about the food itself he provided a ton of interesting information about Bruges and its history. Would definitely recommend.

It was a nice way to explore Bruges. It is not commercial and is very relaxed. The delicacies of Bruges/Belgium tasted in a unique way. Visited small tents that specialized in cheese, fish and meats. Xavier tells beautiful background stories of the background of Bruges. Had a very nice afternoon.

Nice tour and visited nice hidden shops. This way you can visit places that you would otherwise not visit. Nice conversations and interesting stories. Some critical note, the guide gave his opinion that a certain store sold the “best chocolate” (for example), but did not substantiate this.
