Brussels To Bruges: Private & Personalized Day Trip With A Local

There's lots of walking. Wonderful tour guide. See it in the morning before the crowds-great photography opportunity without people in your shots.

This was an amazing place with such a great tour guide. She was so accommodating and flexible for our needs. She let us have some free time while also educating us and showing us around the town. We highly recommend the tour.

We appreciated Andrea altering our trip for us when our plane arrived a day and several hours late. He showed us all the most liked places!

Senna was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly on our tour of Bruges. We’d happily book with him again. His knowledge of the city and ability to story-tell is truly unmatched. Our daughters had a wonderful time and learned about the history of Bruges. Senna also had great suggestions on bars and chocolate shops for Brussels! Make sure you ask!

Our Guide, Andrea! Absolutely amazing person! With deep knowledge of the subject and history in general! Andrea has a keen understanding of politics and a brilliant command of the history of Belgium and the whole of Europe.

Our family of five had a wonderful time with Andrea. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared some very fastening history that greatly enriched our trip. He was an excellent guide and I highly recommend taking his tour.

We loved our tour with Sebastian! He was very accommodating and really honed in on the sites were interested in seeing. He has a vast knowledge of both Brussels and Bruges as well as the surrounding regions. Sebastian was a joy to hang out with and we felt like we could have talked for hours.

It was a great day, my guide met me in the morning exactly as planned and had our train tickets all set up, so off we went. We had a great chat along the way and the ride went quickly. We got off the train and started exploring Bruges. My guide had a ton of knowledge and recommended many different places. She had a great lunch spot in mind and we enjoyed some great local food. We had a great day exploring the various sites of Bruges, I wouldn't hesitate booking this tour again!

A wonderful trip to a wonderful place..our guide was very knowledgeable and very good....I highly recommend this trip to everyone

Not a great experience. It was crowded and rainy. Want chocolate or lace, maybe a waffle with a medieval town square? That’s pretty much the appeal and our guide had to check an app on his phone to tell us what we were seeing. Really? I’d head to Antwerp or spend more time in Amsterdam. Just not worth it.

Ricardo took the time to find out what our group liked to do and researched the best stops to make the most of our time in Bruges!

I travel often and have always used the guides suggested in Rick Steves book. This was my first time using tripadvisor and I want you to know that Ricardo was by far my best and favorite. He is knowledgeable above the typical attractions and a very kind person. He is a must have tour guide!

Ricardo Mota was our private guide for our tour of Bruges. He met us at our Brussels hotel and walked us to the train station where we caught the train to Bruges. Once there, Ricardo had done his homework and geared the tour around our interests and sights we wanted to see. He was able to personalize the tour in this way because he had us answer a query about our interests, places we wanted to see, etc. Never had any guide anywhere gone to this extent to insure we were given an enjoyable yet comprehensive tour. He immersed us in the local scene as well as taking us to the “must see” places in Bruges. His command of English is excellent and his demeanor was very friendly and easygoing yet professional. We’d tour with him again in a heartbeat.

We decided to go the private guide route for a tour of Bruges. Granted it was more expensive than a group tour, but we’ll worth the extra. Our guide, Ricardo, sent a questionnaire in order to find out our interests and must see places and things. He designed the tour specifically to our answers to his inquiry. He didn’t rush us at all and gave us all we could see and do in the 10 hours spent with him.

It was a dream excursion, Melissa the guide was fantastic made us delve into the story, it was nice suoee and I explain everything to the thousand wonders without a doubt I will return
