We flew to Brussels that morning and had to wait to check into the hotel. Not knowing when we might arrive in Bruges, we didn't book the tour until we were on the train to Bruges. We were so grateful to hear back from Ann that she could take us for a tour with such short notice. We only had a few hours, but felt like we managed to see a lot. She was flexible and kind enough to be willing to let us interrupt the walking tour with a boat tour (extra 15 euros person) and then surprised us by treating us to water and chocolates too. It was great to spend a few hours with someone who had grown up in the City. We were too late in the day to see some attractions, but she brought us inside two churches and she dropped us off at a lovely restaurant for dinner. Thank you, Ann!

The bus will drop you off in the park and you will do a walking tour for about 45 min first before the canal ride. Not meant for those with walking issues as there are many cobblestone streets, horses with carriages and lots of people so you need to be on your toes. Beautiful place.

The Dark Side of Bruges walking tour was excellent and one of the highlights of our visit! My granddaughter & I loved it. When we met in the town square, our guide explained that because it doesn't get dark until around 10:00–10:30 p.m. during this time of year, the tour would be a little different than the traditional "Dark Side" experience. It actually made for a wonderful evening of exploring the city. Our guide was exceptional. His knowledge of Bruges' history, legends, and fascinating stories kept us engaged from beginning to end. He led us down charming, narrow streets and hidden alleyways that most visitors—and even many other tours—never see. One of my favorite parts was seeing the original wooden houses and learning how homeowners carefully restore and preserve them according to their original historical designs. We learned so much about the city's history and architecture while enjoying a unique perspective of Bruges. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bruges. It's informative, entertaining, and a great way to discover parts of the city that many visitors miss.

We had a great time on this tasting tour. Our guide, Martin, did a great job blending the history of the food we were tasting as well as the history of the city and surrounding areas. Hard to say what our favorite tasting was… But I think the chocolate may be the winner for us. Great way to explore the city, learn the history, and eat/drink our way around town. 5 ⭐️

This was a fun experience. Luis was a great tour guide and explained a lot of the history in Brugge. It was a comfortable pace. We went early s there was plenty of great photo opportunities (no large crowds). After the tour, there was ample time to shop and go back to the places that really interested us, then we were guided back to the bus.

I did this experience with my wife and 14 year old son. We all thought it was amazing. We have recently begun taking cooking classes on Viator when we travel, and I thought this was amongst the best I have participated in. You begin with a nice tasting of Belgian beers. Dad happy! Then you make belgian waffles. Mom happy! And my son enjoyed it as well. I took pictures and ate the waffles. So delicious! Our instructor was excellent and very personable. There was a group of young Dutch women also, and they mainly conversed in dutch, but I thought he did a nice job in interpreting what they asked and his response. Unnecessary, but went the extra mile.

Our guide Dimitra Maragkaki was absolutely amazing, very prompt starting from the day before the tour, during the whole tour including the bus ride and walking tour. She was very helpful full of information, very knowledgeable and friendly and considerate. She was constantly looking for our safety, make sure the slower walker is always catching up. A wonderful pleasant experience.

We had a really knowledgeable guide, and learnt so much. The whole tour was great from start to finish. At the Menin Gate there was also a piper band from an Airdree regiment playing, which made the last post ceremony even more moving. A long day but well worth it
