Itinerary
We take you on a tour of the lesser known parts of Bruges, the side tourists never get to see. We'll tell you old tales, legends and ghost stories that are as old as the city itself, and we'll make the fascinating history of Bruges come to life!
We start the tour on the main square with a historical introduction of Bruges.
We'll tell you the history of the beautiful Jan van Eyck square, the old harbour of medieval Bruges!
Get to know where the picturesque Golden Hand Canal got its name from. It includes the devil and a lot of superstition.
Find out the fascinating legendary story of this iconic church.
Take a snapshot of the majestic mills on the outskirts of the city.
The tour will end in front of a very cool local pub: Bauhaus Bar.

Traveler reviews
When the guide starts the tour by telling you how much you should tip immediately switched off wanted 50 euro each Thomas get re
Guide demanded money at start of trip wanted 50 euro per person never known anything like it. Tour was not exciting anyway
Very interesting
We went on a night walking tour “the Dark side of Bruges”. Our guide Mr. Martin explained everything in a very good manner and we really enjoyed his way of explanation. No boredom and he took us through the tail which is not usual. We enjoyed it a lot.. I will definitely recommend this tour and especially Mr. Martin.
Be a tourist but walk as a local
Excellent willingness of our guide Beatrice to teach us and tell us about the whole city. We walk a lot in not so crowded parts. I recommend it
Off the beaten track
Cool stories, off tourist routes. A completely different view of Bruges! Thank you Martin! Just perfect!!
10/10 - would recommend!
Enjoyed a very informative and engaging tour with Mauricio! Definitely recommend - was nice to explore the lesser known parts of the city and unique aspects of history. Walked away with a lot more information than expected.
