Best tour ever and so funny! - Our tour guide was INCREDIBLY witty, dynamic, engaging, funny, and friendly!! We had such a wonderful time that we gave him a huge tip while we enjoyed a beer at Half Moon Brewery at the end of the tour. The stories he told were so interesting, and he even provided free resources at the end of the tour to help us enjoy the rest of our Bruges trip. You need to start your Bruges experience with this tour, and look for the yellow Ambassadors umbrella at the meeting point!

Best of Bruges. - We did a day trip from Amsterdam with Camaleon Tours. We were the only English speaking passengers on the coach, so we were very fortunate to get Nick as our private guide through Bruges. Nick was born and bred in Bruce's and is very passionate about his home town. Thoroughly recommend Nick for your tour of Bruce's.

Surprising walk in beautiful Bruges! - Pleasant, surprising story about Bruges, no boring list of historical dates, interaction with participants through plays (we had another performance of 'the good day' during the Battle of the Golden Spurs😃) Meanwhile, our English refreshed a bit!

Best walking tour of Bruge - We love to do a free walking tour whenever we visit anywhere new. They are so informative and this tour did not disappoint. Artur knew so much and delivered it so well. Many times the whole group was chuckling. He gave us so much history and information about everything in Bruge and we followed many of his recommendations. I’ll let you book a tour so you can find out what they are!
