Tour Program

1
Meeting Point

We’ll start our culinary experience at a central spot. Hope you’re hungry!

3
Jewel of the North Sea

Fish is not our premium food selection, but there is a brave little animal in the North Sea. Come and figure it out with me!

6
The Palace of the Richest Family of the City

Local Belgian Beer

In the Middle Ages, the citizens of Bruges were not amused with their new emperor. This resulted in the creation of a local beer, which went on to become a Belgian trademark.

10
French Fries are not French!

Yep, ‘French’ fries were invented right here in Belgium. Tourists named them ‘French’. How do you make them?

General FAQs

What’s included in my tour?

This tour includes ten tantalizing tastings. Most are for you only, with a few that will be shared. You're more than welcome to have an extra drink or tasting, but just note this will be at your own expense.

When is the best time to start this kind of tour?

In our experience, the best starting time for the Food Tour is around 11am. It’s not too crowded, then and you won't need a big lunch afterwards!

Fun day of history and great food

We had a great day with Patrick on the history and tasting tour! He gave us a great over view of the beautiful city of Brugge! The tastings we had were absolutely delicious and he took to us to local, family owned businesses, which we really appreciated! The weather was perfect the day of our tour! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Brugge, especially if it is your first time!!

Best food tour ever!

We had an amazing tour of Bruges with our guide Patrick. We got more than just wonderful food but also the history of this lovely town. Patrick is a native of Bruges and was able to share so much with us. The restaurants and shops we visited were family owned small establishments and the food was superb. We had a couple of surprise tastings along the way which I won’t talk about because I want you to be surprised. I urge you to take this tour if you’re in Bruges. It would be a great tour for families as well!

Our Honeymoon!

Patrick is the most wonderful guide we have ever had. Not only was he knowledgeable about history, origins of the diverse cultural elements, but also incredibly personable and added a personal touch to every story he told. We took the Classic Food Tour and Brugge for a Honeymoon and can honestly say it was one of the highlights of our entire trip.
