We had a great time. Xavier was full of knowledge about the history of Bruges! I recommend this tour!

A wonderful walking tour of Bruges start to finish. We learned a lot about the history of Bruges and sampled some delicious treats. Our guide did a fabulous job of explaining Bruges' history from the Middle Ages onward. Standout treats were the meats and cheeses and the waffles. Our guide recommended that we have our waffle without any toppings as there is sugar in the dough, and oh my, he was 100% correct. We look forward to returning to Bruges to pick up where we left off.

Our tour guide was incredibly smart and knowledgeable and gave an excellent overview of the history of Bruges while also showing some of the incredible food that Bruges has to offer. The 4 stops which consisted of a cheese tasting, beer, chocolate and fries were all exceptional and helped to truly understand the heritage and culture of the city through food

Xavier was an incredible fountain of knowledge that he eagerly passed along to us during our afternoon tour! This was our first time in Brugges and were looking for a comprehensive insight into the city, along with enjoying some of the local customs. Xavier delivered on all of the above. We walked into some of the quietest parts of the city, as Xavier explained the history of Brugges, both past and present. We even managed to sample some of Brugges best beer, frites and chocolate before the afternoon was over. All in all, an amazing experience, and one that we would highly recommend for anyone traveling to Brugges!

Our tour guide Xavier organized an amazing and informative tour. He took us around to all the scenic spots in the city that we did not read about online when planning to do sightseeing in Bruges. Essentially, he showed us a facet of the city that is picturesque and with a lot of history. The culinary items for tasting that were organized for this tour were a delight and provided a true taste of Bruges. I will definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting Bruges.

5star experience with great insights into the history of Bruges. Also nice tasting of typical dishes and beer. Our guide was friendly and really knows his stuff. Be advised: The tours focus is 3 parts of history and 1 part of food

This was our first time visiting Bruges and we wanted to get a feel for the city and it’s history. This was the perfect place to start. Xavier was very good about communicating where and when to meet- there was no confusion. We saw some great highlights and learned a ton of history about this very old city. We stopped off at a few places for some bites of cheese, fries, beer, and chocolate, hitting all the quintessential Belgian staples! Xavier was very engaging and you could tell he was proud of his home. His pride for his city and country made the tour 10x better. Would definitely recommend!!

A very successful tour with plenty of information about the history of Bruges and the history of certain buildings. A guide who speaks with passion for his town

SantoClarito

The tour with Xavier was really exceptional and fun while also learning a lot more than I could remember. When I return to Bruges, I will definitely check back with him if I have the time to have another tour with maybe a different focus to make the most of his wisdom. He was a very knowledgeable, wonderfully polite and fun and pleasant person to spend the better half of a day in Bruges. If you have the time while in Bruges and also basic knowledge about the greater European history, I can no less than highly recommend having Xavier show you "his" city and tell you about the what's, where's and when's while also treating your tummy to some pleasant delicacies. Thank you again, Xavier, for this perfect experience.
