We sampled our way around the city and I can honestly say we now know how to be chocolate connoisseurs. Loved this tour. Thankyou”

“If you want to know where to buy the good Belgium chocolates then Avo is your guy. He will teach you all about chocolate, how it is made and where to find the good stuff. He will also teach you everything you ever wanted to know about beer. Belgium beer is as complex as wine and is enjoyed much the same way. You will learn what glass to use with each type of beer, why it helps and what ingredients make the best beer. There are a few surprises along the way too. This is my second time taking this tour and it was as good as the first. Avo…”

“JK was a great guide for walking part of this experience. Knowledgeable & witty. Boat tour good too. We were let down as there was no record of our booking for beer tasting in Beer Museum and ticket issued to us by Viator was not acceptable to them. Disappointing as this was last evening in Bruges and we have asked for a refund.”

I joined the group as a solo traveler and it didn’t take long to feel like I was out with a group of friends. We were amply entertained by Eddie who was our guide for the tour and was a real character. He led the tour at a nice pace and provided plenty of information on the beers and the city as we went between bars.”

Visit Bourgogne des Flandres in Bruges with a multilingual audioguide. See brewing and distilling equipment, open fermentation vessels, and the brewer at work, then enjoy a 25 cl beer or soft drink in the canalside bar.

Full of information and history, he did the 45 minute tour there is a longer o e, however, it includes many steps so read carefully if you have any issues with climbing stairs. He didn't eat in the restaurant, however, very good food just a little expensive. Gift shop brilliant”
