Uncover the best of Canal Tour the local Way

"No matter whether you're Belgian or coming from abroad, if you want to discover the true history of Bruges, all the way from the 11th century until now, you've come to the perfect place with Martin! On top of being a passionate enthusiast of this enchanting city, Martin studied history. He generously immerses you in medieval times, and has a tremendous knowlegde. He illustrates his Tour with drawings and visual documents, which help you to understand Bruges even better. Martin takes us back in time, and it feels very real. A wealth of anecdotes, told in a funny, inspiring way and suitable for all ages (no one gets bored, not even your kids :)) Throughout the tour, he also gives you additional tips, asking questions to target your needs. We definitely recommend Martin! "

"Philippe was a great guide, in fact he worked with us to reschedule due to an unexpected illness in our group. Once the tour started it was clear that Phillippe has a great understanding of Bruge (lifelong resident) and was able to show us several things that we would have never discovered on our own. Highly recommend and would book with Philippe again without hesitation. "

"If I could give Martin an 11 out of 10, I would! He provided just the right amount of history - not too much to bore us - but enough to understand the importance of his story. He had a great sense of humor and made the stories about the town very easy to appreciate and understand. Great tour guide. Could not ask for a more perfect guide for what our small group desired. "

"Arthur was a spectacular guide! He took us to fantastic food places. We sampled chocolate, fries, and waffles. We also ended up at the beer museum tasting same great beers overlooking the main square. Arthur provided great historical facts either humor that had us all laughing numerous times. Highly recommend Arthur’s you want to have a good time. "

"Artur was funny, friendly and so knowledgeable about the food and history of the city. It was a pleasure to get an inside view of the best chocolate shops and restaurants with no waiting, no choosing just enjoying samples and talking tastes. Artur gave us restaurant recommendations for the wider trip and made us reservations continuing our food adventure across the weekend. It was lovely to meet you :)"

"Martin was such a great host! It was less of a tour and felt more like you were walking around Bruges with an old friend. His knowledge of the “hidden gems” was on point and loved learning a little history along the way. Highly recommend Martin for any tour you choose with him. Carrie & Kash"

"We had the best time with Philippe! He was patient with our 4 high energy boys and so knowledgeable. He was able to answer all our questions. We felt like we saw most of the city which was a great way to acclimate and help us figure out where we wanted to explore more deeply. Philippe also recommended a great restaurant and waffle shop. "
