A wonderful experience
"Thank you Artur for such a wonder time. Your knowledge, experience, and professionalism were amazing. We enjoyed every tasting and look forward to our next visit to Bruges!"
"This is a great tour with a great guide. Learned so much about the city in our two hour walk. We even had time to have a beer at the local brewery. Highly recommend this tour."
"My husband and I were spending two nights in Bruges, and we wanted to explore the area with a local to see parts of Bruges that we might otherwise miss, learn more about the history of the city, and of course taste some of its specialties. We arrived at the meeting point about ten minutes early, and Tom was already there waiting for us. Tom took us all over Bruges, showed us landmarks and explained so much history with great stories. He was very engaging, and also very patient with my many stops to take photos. Tom offered us a nice variety of local foods and drinks to sample. We really enjoyed them all, but our favorite tasting stops were the chocolatier and the brewery. All-in-all, I would say that our tour of Bruges made for an absolutely perfect afternoon. Thank you again for the fantastic tour, Tom!"
"Philippe was a great host, really knowledgeable and very helpful throughout, especially to accommodate our special requests. A very pleasant guide indeed!"
"Patrick was so great! We did the 10 Tastings of Bruges tour with him. He loves his city and he gave us a great variety of food tastings along with a great city tour. Great personality and energy."

The Perfect way to see The Real Bruges
"It's been a year and we still talk about this tour with Phillipe. When we booked (in autumn) it was just the two of us and Phillipe. Getting the bikes was easy and included. We had a brief conversation about what we were interested in and then immediately set off.
Our tour was uniquely tailored to our interests. I truly mean it. Phillipe sought out and emphasized the things he thought we would enjoy. We talked about ancient water pumps and 17th century pharmacy and we LOVED it. But it's not all esoteric interests. Phillipe has been in the city for decades and knows it intimately. You will see the old city from the 12th and 13th century as well as learn how to spot the parts that just "look old." You will experience the parts of the city that no one sees right in front of their face. You will take your bike places you didn't know you could take a bike in Bruges. Just make sure you keep up with Phillipe!
This tour was completely worth it. If you like beautiful bike rides, interesting history, secret sights, great food recommendations, and a guide who cares, this is going to be a great for you.

"Thankyou Tom for a fantastic experience visiting Bruges! We really appreciated your extensive knowledge on the area, your flexibility to accomodate the interests of our group, and the enjoyable way you delivered the tour. I would highly recommend a tour with you to anyone visiting Belgium! "
