      Fabulous walk in Bruges

      "Hugo was amazing. He met us at the hotel in the historic district and we set out. It was a hot day but Bruges was beautiful and after a few minutes in the regular tourist frequented area, Hugo took us to the historic parts of Bruges normally not visited by tourists and regaled us with some gems of Bruges history. The canalized river flows in and out of the city like long fingers, houses, restaurants and hotels hugging her sides. Hugo was kind enough to let us take a break at the oldest cafe in Bruges, far from the madding crowd! He is a veritable font of knowledge and I’m thrilled I chose him for our tour. "

      10+ Out of 10

      "Wow...can't tell you what an awesome experience it was with Martin. He was such a great guide, he 'read the room' adjusted his time, stories, interest and nailed it. We had a family of 5 with 3 'kids' ages 20, 17 and 15 and he figured out exactly how to make the tour perfect for us all."

      Fabulous Couple's Trip to Beautiful Bruges

      "We just returned from a wonderful couples trip. We had Xavier for two tours while we were in Bruges. A city tour as well as a beer tour. Both were fantastic. Xavier truly enjoys sharing his city with people, We learned soo much of the history of Bruges. It's one on my favorite cities in Europe. He gave us a lot of great recommendations on places to eat. The beer tour was equally fantastic. We learned too much about the art of beer and the different kinds. I would highly recommend Xavier for any tour."

      The best walking tour in Bruges

      "We had a fantastic walking tour with Martin in Bruges. He has an amazing knowledge base about everything Bruges, right down to the tiniest details, which are often the best bits! We came away knowing lots of interesting facts as well as lots of recommendations about where to eat, shop and other sights to see. We tried out a couple of the recommendations and they were spot on! If I could give a rating 20 out of 10, I would. Thank you for making our visit to Bruges so memorable Martin! "
