Good Fun

Thomas was such an engaging tour guide who genuinely was excited to share stories and histories of the city! The tour didn’t move too fast, was informative and fun and it was fun to learn more interesting and slightly spooky histories to Bruges rather than just what you’d learn on a general walking tour.

Excellent guide and information

A must for some off-beat route and local stories

An amazing experience

All about this Free Tour eas great, from the content to the story telling qualities of the guide. I extremely recommend this experience to those interested in finding out a little bit more of a non-gentrificated side of Brugge. Don't expect spooky stories, tho.

Amazing Tour with Thomas

We covered some quarters we didnt even know were important to see! So thanks to Thomas and his stories and knowledge we got to know Bruges way better. We totally enjoyed our evening walk and learned and laughed a lot
