My travel companions and I only had one short day in Bruges. We decided to book Xavier’s Highlights and Hidden Gems walking tour so that we could really see as much as we could of this beautiful city. Xavier is charming, kind, and knowledgeable about his home town. He modified our tour to fit our needs and desires. This trip was our first into Belgium (3 cities in 3 days) and served a reconnaissance mission for future trips. We will most definitely be back to spend more time in Bruges thanks to Xavier. We will be wanting to book other tours with him at that time. Highly recommend!

A True Local Gem
We had a wonderful time with Hugo! He (and generations of his family) is from Bruges and has so much deep knowledge of the city and fun (and funny) anecdotes to share. We loved that he focused on small, local businesses. It was a great way for us to learn about Bruges during a short, weekend visit. We would love to seek Hugo out next time we come, as well!

Tastes of Bruges and so much More!
Jay was entertaining, a font of historical knowledge and knew everyone in town. The tour was masterfully choreographed as we wove our way through the center of town with frequent stops for tasty treats including excellent beer. It was a great afternoon!

Bruges Day Out
Had an exceptional tour with Lavigna - knowledgeable and friendly and full of interesting information about historic and beautiful Bruges. Lavigna also shared recommendations including the best chocolate shops (very delicious) and we visited several impressive historical sites around the town. A delightful guide I would strongly recommend Lavigna for a tour in Bruges.
