3.00Interesting walk and good value. I personally didn't like the guide's self-agrandising sense of humour and 'jokes' on clichéd sterotypes. I would have preferred more historical/cultural stories and less personal anecdotes/opinions.
Great way to learn about...

5.00Although it was a tad rainy, my guide, Artur, made sure to adjust how our route looked - safe enough for us to move around. It's a quick high view of what's important to visit in the Brugges, and whichever called out to you, come back and spend time there. Artur a chill guy who engaged with everyone in the group and made the two-hour tour comfortable, so for a solo traveler, I recommend this tour all around.
Excellent informative tour

5.00Steve was an excellent guide. He gave us history of the town. Lots of humor and plenty of knowledge. He also gave some important tips on the best fries, chocolate and waffles. We took advantage of his knowledge. The tour ends in a beautiful spot and we were able to easily walk to the train station. We would highly recommend this tour. Brugge is beautiful ; a don’t miss town
A day that stays

5.00It was a wonderful morning with our guide Steven – a person with the rare gift of bringing history to life. His stories about Bruges were far more than interesting – they were a journey through time and feeling at the same time. With a lightness that comes only from genuine enthusiasm, Steven found the right tone for everyone in the group. Strangers became a community through his way of telling and connecting, united in wonder at this city full of stories. The small, unexpected extras – lovingly selected tastings, hidden corners that you would never have discovered on your own, and the quiet beauties of architecture – made the tour very special. You begin to tell yourself, to feel part of the story, as if Bruges were gently absorbing you into their own narrative. Bruges is extraordinary anyway, but with Steven this day became an unforgettable experience full of warmth, discovery and quiet joy. A day that stays.
Beatiful town with experienced tour guide
