A historic ride around Bruges and Damme - This was a great bike trip off the beaten tracks of Bruges. Xavier took us to places we never would have seen, like the historic town of Damme. The ride was only 10 miles over flat terrain, but we saw and learned a lot about the area in and around Bruges. For inexperienced bikers, you can request an e-bike.

A Lovely Way to Spend a Morning - My husband and I enjoyed this lovely bike tour from Bruges to Damme a lot. Our guide was efficient, informative, and entertained LOTS of my questions. The sites we visited were relevant and he gave a good overview of the area. The cycling wasn't challenging, and it was the right amount for us.

Xavier is a 5 star guide. Great ride to the country side!! - My friends and I enjoyed our ride from Bruges to Damme and back. The ride along the canal with mini stops to catch our breath, take photos, and learn about the countryside was all worth it. Once in Damme we had a moment stop for some drinks and get to know each other. Xavier knows all you need know about the area. I recommend this to all and note that this does require some endurance, so if you need an ebike you should ask.

Great unique experience - Even in rain and overcast, this tour was a great experience. It was refreshing to get out of the tourist center and spend some time out in nature, and we learned a lot about Bruges and Damme history.

Fabulous experience! - My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on the bike tour. Seeing the Belgium countryside, biking along the canals, seeing and learning about Damme with Xavier, our knowledgable, friendly and delightful guide, was the highlight of our Bruges visit. Highly recommend this tour.

Great guide and experience! - We had a great time in this excursion, and we highly recommend it to others. Our guide was Xavier. He was communicative the day before and morning of our ride, as rainy weather was a possibility. Starting point was easy to find and getting started was simple. Xavier was a nice person and informative guide. Everything is flat and so the biking is not strenuous, and Xavier is careful to be sure you are safe where you cross roads here and there. Made several small stops along the way to provide us a range of local current and historical information. We made a few stops on the edge of Bruges and then biked along the canal out to Damme. In Damme, Xavier gave us a pleasant walking tour of this presently quaint but historically important town, and we had time to sit at a cafe and have a drink. Excellent experience all around with Xavier and the biking and locations.

Fun bike ride from Bruges to Damme - This 3.5 hour bike round from Bruges to Damme was both scenic and informative. Xavier was very knowledgeable about Bruges and its environs, and was eager to share this information to make the bike ride that much more interesting. We stopped at a number of places along the canal to learn more about the history of Bruges and the significance of the windmills, gates etc along the way. The walking tour in Damme was also very interesting and it was fun to cycle around the canals in Bruges and the canal leading to Damme.
I would highly recommend this tour as a way to see and learn more about Bruges and the surrounding area
