Great tour guide Martin. Great stories but also good to see quieter parts of Bruges. Good size group as well and lots of chances to take photos and ask questions.

A wonderfully insightful and engaging guided history walk through Bruges. I learned so much, enjoyed every moment, and came away with a deeper appreciation of the city’s rich past. Highly recommended.

Our guide was excellent. Great stories, very good knowledge of the area and a really lovely person. Engaging, funny, just the perfect host for our tour. Would highly recommend. Tim was also the perfect tour companion 🐕🦺

We had a great time with our guide Martin. He had great stories and a good sense of humour and made us enjoy the tour even though it was raining intensely. Not your usual tour but it was way better in my opinion.

Actual Tour was different than what was described in Tour description. Tour Guide Mauricio was friendly enough. He said Tour was “Horrors of Bruge” which would have been a more accurate tour title than “Dark Side of Bruge.” Was expecting more “explor[ing] the city’s centuries-old landmarks” and “highlights” than ghost and horror stories. Tour description said “ Finish at a bar where you can sip a traditional Belgian beer.” That did not happen - we were not led to a bar.

Fun and informative, we really enjoyed this walking tour on Halloween. We learned lots of interesting stories of old Bruges. Aline and Tim were great.

Informative, a string of quircky stories and the opportunity to be led by a local by night. Would recommend to wrap up the day nicely
