Hi there! Nice to meet you

Patrick

I am a professional and qualified tour guide and have made it my mission to show you places, hidden gems, sights and monuments of Bruges.

Because of my job, I had the opportunity to see many places in the world, especially in the United States and Southern Europe. Although this was fascinating and very inspiring to me, I slowly began to realize that my heart belongs to Bruges. During all those years I didn't see the beauty of my own city. The city in which I grew up : Bruges.

I decided to specialize myself in the history of my hometown. I bought literature, learned to know every museum inside out, spend hours with older people to discover secret topics not covered in any book and finally as a food lover I know almost every restaurant in town.

The tours I offer here will take you around Bruges introducing you to the many facets that Bruges has, including its most romantic bridges and lakes, the underground remains of an old cathedral, a clinic of 800 years, the oldest brewery, the Beguinage, and last but not least, discover with me our famous Belgian beer, chocolates and freshly baked warm waffles.

Curious now? Join me!

Ik heb zo hard genoten van de toer.. het was leerrijk en super tof. Heel leuk dat er nog mensen zijn die de kennis en geschiedenis meedragen en doorgeven. Als je terug in de tijd gecapulteert wil worden en je wilt je laten onderdompelen in de havenstad waar hard werd gewerkt en handel gedreven. Ben je bij patrick aan het juiste adres! Dank u wel het was echt aangenaam en zijn geld waard. Heerlijk en leerrijk

We had an amazing tour with Patrick! He is very knowledgeable, warm, engaging, great with our kids (ages 8, 10, 14 and 16) and obviously loves his beautiful city. I feel like we definitely saw the highlights and some hidden gems and learned a lot of history. He had great recommendations/suggestions as well. I highly recommend booking with Patrick- you will not be disappointed! Wonderful!

We met Patrick in the central square in Brugge on a very hot day. He told great stories about the city and introduced us to delicious food. My friends and I enjoyed learning about the city from a true local. If you are going to be in Brugge definitely choose Patrick as your guide. Great tour of Brugge

I had the best tour with Patrick yesterday. He was so kind and so knowledgeable, it was really great. Not only did I learn a lot but I also felt I was provided with lesser known tips and details about the city. Thank you, Patrick!Patrick is fantastic!
