A much quieter experience - Was a great tour to see Brugge in the evening without the crowds!
Definitely recommend.
It is a free tour, but tipping is recommended at the end for the guides.

Best tour guide in Bruges - The historical facts were excellent, the historical legends were titular, and the legends guide was exactly that, legendary! Martin was the best tour guide I've had the pleasure of following. We will definitely be back for the food tour tomorrow with him!

Great orientation - Informative and interesting tour through the center of Bruges. Our guide provided a history of Bruges through the ages and pointed out various landmarks, including unique period homes, the world’s oldest stock exchange, and various churches. Highly recommend - just bring flat shoes as most of the streets are made if cobblestone!

Excellent local guide - Excellent tour guide sadly can’t remember his name but studied architecture and was resident of Bruges - superb knowledge and insight - kept moving, was not boring at all - great to have a local guide. Took about 2 hours from start to finish. Highly recommend.

A real local showed us his hometown :) - Louis, born and raised in Bruges, led us to the lesser known parts of the city. It was entertaining and interesting to listen to him talk about history as well as legends of the city. After all already his grandfather lived here, so the tour really felt authentic. Highly recommend.
