Great guide! - Wonderful way to see the gorgeous buildings at night and learn some of the history of this fascinating city. Our guide was wonderful and we were thrilled that the sights and stories were different from the daylight tour we took the following morning. Sad to learn that TripAdvisor and Viator took all the money we paid and gave none to the guide though. Next time I will go around them and book directly with the tour companies.

Do this tour 1st day you are in town - Such a great tour. We wish we had done it day one instead of in the middle of our trip. Our night photos are incredible. It is a long tour, about 2 hrs. Have good shoes and be prepared for a long walk. It is a free tour, and u tip your guide at the end. Other reviews suggested $10 euro per person. It is well worth it

Terrific experience - Martin was our guide and did a fantastic job of telling stories about Bruges. We'd done a different tour earlier in the day and we were worried this would just be a duplicate, but he told totally different stories. It was terrific. I'd definitely recommend this!

The dark side of Bruges - Tour moved very slow. Lasted over 2 hours. Guide left us 15 minutes from meeting place at 10:00 pm in a strange city.
