Chris was our guide. Very...

Chris was our guide. Very knowledgeable of Bruges. However, I've never been more appalled at the end of the tour when our guide - chris- asked for tips so he can go have beers. We've traveled all over Europe doing many tours and have never had this experience. It was highly inappropriate and awkward as be stood there waiting for euros. We are happy to tip our guides if we decide to because we are pleased with their tour. I would not recommend chris - at all or the tour. Simon - his boss- didnt really seem interested in the issue. Overall, pretty disappointed in the guide and company. 0/5 recommend this tour. Save your money.

We recommend it!

Excellent tour! The guide took us through the iconic places and also to taste french fries, beers, chocolate, and even waffles! The tour is complete. Everything accompanied by the history of the city as well. Without a doubt, we recommend it!

Excellent

The tour was extremely informative and very interesting. Martin Gotzes was able to tell us the history of Bruges in a very vivid and interesting way. His maps, photos, and tips were great. We were all very satisfied.

Great Tour

It was a great tour given by a very knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide. Sam was fantastic. Can’t speak highly enough of both the tour and Sam, our tour guide. Was one of the better tours we have taken!

Great guide (Martin), great tour

Fantastic tour. Martin was our guide and was amazing. We saw the main sites, but his local knowledge made it far better than doing it on our own with a Fodor’s book. The best part is we went into many areas that would not have been accessible in a typical 20 person group. Definitely worth the cost and we are very glad we did the private tour. Martin also gave us restaurant recommendations so that we could get the real local Belgium experience vs. the touristy spots.
