Summary: What a phenomenal evening. Our guide was Hilda and she was great. A perfect attitude and full of local knowledge. We spent 2 hours seeing sites that we would definitely have missed on our own. We contributed 40 euros and it was well worth it.

Summary: It was informative and fun. Our tour guide was very entertaining. The information was more about the history of Bruges with less focus on folklore
