Go with Hugo
"Hugo was knowledgeable, interesting, and charming. He shares his love of Brugge through stories of the city’s history with humor. He is easy to get along with and patient with questions and taking photos. He had great recommendations for everything from parking to eating to shopping. There’s no question for us: when we go to Brugge, we go with Hugo!"

Pro course in Bruges
"Igor has a background in history and archaeology, and I felt like we were walking around with a professor learning about history, art, and geography in real time. He was accommodating to our timing (and stopping for excellent snacks) while providing nonstop information and storytelling about Bruges from the Celtics all the way through the 1970s. A great way to get a crash course in a fantastic town."

Great beer tasting 😀
"Artur was most personable and such a good host. He was very knowledgeable and found the right beers for us in 2 brilliant beer bars. We also visited an amazing beer shop with a huge selection of beers. Thank you Artur!"

Unforgettable Ghent Experience!
"We had an absolutely wonderful time exploring Ghent with Benedikt! Over the course of three hours, he managed to show us many hidden gems and share fascinating stories that made the city truly come alive. His passion for Ghent was infectious, and his warmth, humor, and ability to connect with all of us made it an amazing experience. He even brought us some specific candy from Ghent (‘red noses’) and treated us to some artisanal chocolates in one of the nicest chocolate shops of Ghent. It was the perfect mix of history, fun facts, and local charm. Benedikt is genuinely a very nice guy, thank you for an unforgettable visit to Ghent. Best wishes, Hanif "

A most perfect afternoon!!
"My travel companions and I only had one short day in Bruges. We decided to book Xavier’s Highlights and Hidden Gems walking tour so that we could really see as much as we could of this beautiful city. Xavier is charming, kind, and knowledgeable about his home town. He modified our tour to fit our needs and desires. This trip was our first into Belgium (3 cities in 3 days) and served a reconnaissance mission for future trips. We will most definitely be back to spend more time in Bruges thanks to Xavier. We will be wanting to book other tours with him at that time. Highly recommend! "

A True Local Gem
"We had a wonderful time with Hugo! He (and generations of his family) is from Bruges and has so much deep knowledge of the city and fun (and funny) anecdotes to share. We loved that he focused on small, local businesses. It was a great way for us to learn about Bruges during a short, weekend visit. We would love to seek Hugo out next time we come, as well!"

Wonderful kickstart to Bruges
"Hilde is a fantastic tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and we thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with her. You will not be disappointed with her overview tour and will most likely leave with chocolates in hand! Well done Hilde, it was a pleasure! "

Tastes of Bruges and so much More!
"Jay was entertaining, a font of historical knowledge and knew everyone in town. The tour was masterfully choreographed as we wove our way through the center of town with frequent stops for tasty treats including excellent beer. It was a great afternoon!"

BRUGE WITH LAVIGNA
"Lavigne was a wonderful guide. We truly loved our time with her. She was so informative and we were able to see the highlights of the city even though the crowds were massive due to her knowledge of the back streets. I would highly recommend her!"
