Walking Tour

3 hrs

Bruges

Bruges is known equally for its medieval beauty as it is for its delectable chocolates and refreshing beers. This 3-hour food tour in Bruges, guided by a local expert, will allow you to indulge in the city's unique flavors while leaving room for a side of atmospheric charm.

On this 3-hour gustatory adventure, you will have the chance to wander the streets of Bruges in excellent company and discover some of Belgium's most famous treats – beer, waffles, and, of course, Belgian chocolate – while also immersing yourself in lesser-known gastronomic traditions. Come prepared with a hearty appetite, as Belgian cuisine is renowned for its generous portions and rich indulgence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this tour be adapted for dietary restrictions?
It is possible to adapt tastings for vegetarians, non-alcohol-drinkers as well as gluten/lactose intolerances. It is likely possible to adapt for vegans, but this means the whole tour would need to be adapted, as the venues would need to be adapted for vegan attendees.

Does this tour replace a meal?
While appetites do vary, we would be rather surprised if you felt the need to go straight for a meal after this tour.

Is this tour appropriate for children?
Absolutely! The standard tastings for this tour are very child-friendly (unless your child dislikes french fries), and can be adapted as necessary. We think food tours are a great way to get kids excited about visiting a city.

Johnathan was a wonderful guide. His humor and his knowledge were a perfect blend. He found a perfect restaurant for our dinner (not part of the tour, just helpful) and introduced us to the many delights of Bruges
