Itinerary

Your tour begins at De Burg, Bruges

Meet your local guide on De Burg, framed by Bruges Town Hall’s Gothic façade and the Basilica of the Holy Blood nearby. Get oriented, then set off on foot through the medieval core, hungry and ready.

Browse De Burg while your first tasting sets the tone

Start in Bruges’ most iconic square, where civic power and church history sit side by side. As you taste your first bite, your guide shares the city’s trading roots and how local food traditions grew from everyday market life.

Follow the canals toward Vismarkt for Belgian beer and bites

Next, walk along canal-lined streets to the old Fish Market area, once central to Bruges’ daily rhythm. Settle in for a curated Belgian beer tasting with paired bites, and learn what sets abbey, Trappist, and regional styles apart.

Taste a classic croquette near the Markt district

Then, make your way toward the Markt area for a Belgian croquette, crisp outside and creamy within. Whether it’s shrimp, cheese, or another local filling, your guide explains why this humble staple shows up on brasserie menus across Flanders.

Step into the story of the Belfry with a hearty local dish

Continue past the Belfry, a medieval landmark that once watched over Bruges’ treasury and archives. Nearby, sit down for a richer tasting such as Flemish stew with Belgian fries, the kind of slow-cooked comfort locals return to again and again.

End back at De Burg with waffles and a sweet finish

Finally, return to De Burg to close the loop with Belgian waffles, comparing fluffy bruxelloise and crispy liégeoise waffle styles side by side. Leave with a full meal behind you, new food knowledge in your pocket, and a short list of Bruges spots worth revisiting.
