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.

Tour 4 is a more nostalgic tour taking you to the more silent streets and quarters where the real Bruges people live, away from the madding crowds of tourists. It’s a heaven of tranquillity away from the busy streets and squares. A leisurely stroll through quiet streets where the added spirituality of churches and abbeys will sink in. Where you will catch a breath of fresh air on the ramparts of the city in the shadow of a windmill or relax in dreamy gardens and parks. The perfect remedy for stepping out of the rat race.
The walking tour will take you through the hanseatic quarter and tranquil St Anne’s district. Highlights are the St John’s Square, the stunning baroque St Walburga & St Anne’s churches, the Adornes Estate, the lace centre and local crafts history museum, the longbow and crossbow guilds of St Sebastian and St George, the city ramparts and mills, the museum or Our Lady of the Pottery and the Major Seminary and of course my favourite watering hole, Café Vlissinghe, the oldest pub in town dating back to the 16th century. Alternatively, we can do this tour as well by bicycle.
