Time and again, Bruges, a World Heritage City, captivates the hearts and minds of its visitors. Expressions of amazement and emotion at the sight of the romantic canals, ancient squares and countless art treasures and architecture. These Bruges walks will lead you past breathtaking spots, revealing our true and unique attractive characteristics. Bruges is grand but at the same time a destination on a human scale that is perfect for exploring on foot. Our wealth of cultural-historical monuments and museums goes hand in hand with a wonderful atmosphere and authentic charm. All my career, I have been working and travelling around the globe in business events and tourism. Now that I retired, I'm proud and happy to share the beauty of my hometown with visitors from far. I do not handle large groups, but have chosen for the intimate format of touring, on foot or by bicycle with just a few guests. My style is storytelling, and I want to hear your story too! During my tours, I try to avoid as much as possible the busy spots but will take you off the beaten path into the parts of Bruges many tourists have never seen. This is where and how we live. By the end of the tour, I always share my Google map with my guests; a map that includes personal favorites and hot spots.

    Hugo was simply fabulous as a guide. He customized the journey to our specific interests and tastes. When a closure threw a "curve ball" into the original itinerary, he devised a "plan B" that came just from our prior conversations about things that we enjoyed. He is knowledgeable, a great communicator, intuitive, & extremely professional. We would recommend working...

    We had a fantastic afternoon with Hugo! Kind, good humored, deeply knowledgeable and entertaining, he was an excellent host for our introduction to Bruges. We loved seeing the quieter parts of this magical place that only a local would include. He also gave us great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. You can’t go wrong with Hugo!

    Hello Susanne, thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure for me too to tour my hometown with you guys! I've been off the grid for a couple of days with my moving house to the monastery, but now I'm settled and back on the grid ;-) May I wish you a happy and sunny summer! Kind regards, Hugo
