Fantastic tour for family with teens - A fantastic tour by an engaging guide, perfect for our family to enjoy a guided tour of Bruges with tastings of fries, waffles, chocolate and beer. Patrick, our guide, was a former teacher and a perfect guide.

Yummy treats and not a lot of walking - Patrick was a delightful guide and shared his knowledge of Brugge as we enjoyed the taste of waffles, chocolate and beer. It wasn't too much walking and he kept track of everyone as we moved through the village.

Treat yourself to this tour! - Yum! Patrick led our group on a tasty tour that included chocolate (I know!), confections, waffles (truth), frites and beer. Sounds like the perfect diet. He is a wealth of information and a true gentleman to spend time with as you tour Bruges.

Nice tasty 1.5 hour walk - A nice walk past several chocolate shops, waffle shopping beer brewery. And of course you could taste it. Just worth doing it. For the die 3€ you don't have to. And the guide also told nicely about the origin.

Bruges at Its Best: Food & Stories - We had the absolute pleasure of having Martin as our guide for a gastronomic tour of Bruges, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, Martin brought a warm and welcoming energy, blending deep local knowledge with a genuine passion for both the city and its culinary traditions. His storytelling brought the history of Bruges to life, adding rich context to every stop we made. Each tasting was thoughtfully selected—not only delicious but also a true reflection of the region’s culture and heritage. Martin had a wonderful way of weaving together food, history, and personal insight, making the experience both intimate and enriching. What made the tour even more memorable was how inspired we were by the stops he introduced us to—we ended up returning to several of the retailers he recommended and brought home many culinary delights to savor and share. His suggestions were spot-on and clearly chosen with care. Martin was attentive, engaging, and ensured that everyone in the group felt included and cared for. By the end of the tour, we didn’t just feel like we had tasted the best of Bruges—we felt like we had truly connected with the soul of the city. Highly recommended. If you have the opportunity to tour with Martin, take it—you won’t be disappointed.
