Arturo, our tour guide was fantastic!

Rich_A, Apr 2024

Artur was great. He was energetic and fun. He also knew a tremendous amount about the history of Bruges and it’s key attractions. He knew all the wonderful food spots to take us to…including, chocolate, beer, the delicious Belgium stew and waffles.we were full when the tour was over. I would highly recommend this tour and ask for Artur.

Yes!

Deborah_H, Apr 2024

Amazing experience with Martin! Not only did we enjoy the food ( crazy chocolates, cheesy BELGIAN fries, Waffles, beer) but we truly enjoyed our guides company and knowledge of Bruges..

Do NOT Do the 10 Tastings of Bruges Tour

Justin_M, Apr 2024

Avoid this tour! We only had four tastings out of ten: frites from a stand in the square, waffles from House of Waffles, bruschetta from an Italian restaurant, and a beer at a souvenir shop. Our guide was vegan and had little knowledge of Belgian food. We were completely fooled by all the positive reviews on Viator. You could be assigned some random tour guide by this fraudulent tour company. We wasted three precious hours of our time in Bruges on this expensive so-called food tour. Total ripoff!

Artur knows his stuff

Aoife_C, Apr 2024

We had a great time spending a few hours with our guide Artur. His knowledge of the city, waffles, beer and chocolate is second to none, the time passed very quickly and he even stayed half an hour longer than the allotted tour time. He was engaging and informative. We especially liked that he took lots of photos of us which was lovely as it's hard to get photos with the whole family in. Thanks for a lovely day!

Fantastic family tour

Alexandra_B, Apr 2024

Tom was a fantastic and thorough guide. He tailored it to our three kids ensuring they got chocolate Easter bunnies. He went above and beyond in his explanations and patience. I highly recommend this truly fun and delicious tour!

Mouth watering tour

Virginia_K, Mar 2024

Jeff was the best.— full of history. And the food choices and serving choices super. Most accommodative and thoughtful. Easy. .

Taste of Bruges

nlogan817, Mar 2024

This was the most memorable tour we took on our spring trip to Bruges two years ago. Just four of us and our guide - who was great! Try it out.

Excellent food tour with Patrick

Amy_E, Oct 2023

We absolutely LOVED our tour with Patrick! We was so knowledgeable about the history and food in Bruges. He did an excellent job at personalizing the tour to our needs. He took us to a variety of locations and we enjoyed every detail of the tour! This tour was most definitely a highlight of our trip!

Tastings and historical walking tour of Bruges

chrisandkimjohnson, May 2023

Patrick was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Bruges and made our day very enjoyable. The food tastings were just what we had hoped for and we were very pleased with the selected choices. I would highly recommend Patrick as your guide.

Awesome Food Tour

LCPassno, May 2023

Had an amazing tour with Patrick. Great historical information of Brugge along with the food and beer tastings. Highly recommend. Patrick is very amiable and knowledgeable.

Learned a lot and guide Patrick was terrific.

Diane_P, Apr 2023

The three hours flew by - we went to a lot of local restaurants and food stores along the way. Patrick was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be with.

Great tour

Javen_C, Nov 2022

Great tour. Lots of fun facts, history and some great food stops. One of the highlights is to know where to get the most authentic foods in town that are actually produced in Bruges.

Waste of money and time

Robin_M, Nov 2022

This tour was a huge disappointment after a wonderful tour in Brussels with Hungry Mary’s staff. This one advertised 10 Tastings and we did not get anywhere near. Got a waffle tasting , a beer tasting and one chocolate tasting. It was way too much money.

Excellent tour! Our guide...

Ryan_F, Nov 2022

Excellent tour! Our guide went well beyond just a food tour and gave us a brief history on the entire city song into churches, historic buildings and providing a broad assortment of historical stories/tales.

Excellent food your. The best!!

MichaelField, Oct 2022

Lavigna was amazing. Being a local to Brugge she knew the best places for food. She has an incredible amount of knowledge. But answers many other questions you may have. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

Friendly, funny and full of Information

Christian_B, Oct 2022

The tour was well planned, historical facts were profund and the tastings (mmmmh, chocolate) really delicious! Lavinias nice and warm attitude made us feel as if we were guided by a friend.

Fab-u-Lous Tour with Patrick!

Sarah_R, Oct 2022

What a fabulous Food Tour with Patrick! We had a group consisting of just me, my husband and a friend so it was a very private Tour with just the 4 of us…perfect! We learned so much history along with tasting several local foods, desserts and beer. Patrick had such a passion for Bruges and it came through in everything he shared with us - and I asked a LOT of questions! 😆 This was one of our favorite Tours of our week long trip to Belgium and we would absolutely recommend this Tour! Ask for Patrick for sure!

Amazing food and history

ToniMarie_M, Sep 2022

This was an amazing tour. Our guide Patrick was so full of knowledge and history giving is a true background of this beautiful city. He brought us to so many of his personal favorites making us feel like we were friends not visitors. Thank you for sharing this wonderful time with us.

Highly recommend. Ask for Patrick!

Steve_P, Sep 2022

Our tour guide, Patrick, was beyond fantastic and made our tastings tour very personal taking us to hidden local places with terrific food. We felt like we were visiting Brugge with a long time friend and not a tour guide. In addition he recommended a wonderful local dinner spot that no tourist could ever had found. Thanks so much Patrick! You’re the best

All the food Brugge is known for

Cindy_S, Jul 2022

3 hour walking tour around Brugge with many wonderful tastes: chocolate, ice cream, waffle, beer, North Sea shrimp, cheese, wine, more chocolate, chips (fries) and hot chocolate. Come hungry! Jay is a native who took us to many wonderful sites. Time for eating and photos too.
