We have done this walk before a few years ago but we decided to take our 15 year old this time. We were a little concerned that he would find it boring but he loved it and said it was one of his favourite activities that we did whilst in Bruges. The guide made it interesting and funny - the 1.5 hour tour passes in a flash and leaves you wanting to know more. Next time we plan to join the day tour but we highly recommend the night tour as the atmosphere is amazing.

The team at Legends of Bruges do a great job of providing an entertaining and informative tour of this stunningly beautiful city. We did the free city tour with Jan, who was very knowledgeable and funny. We then did the free night tour with Louis, who is a Bruges local born and bred and the eldest member of the company. Louis was fantastic and regaled us with some lesser known fascinating stories of the historical centre.

I thought the legends walking tour was amazing! I did the day tour with Emiel and the night tour with Pascal. I learned so much about the city and because of it was able to find my feet so I could go off exploring afterwards on my own. Couldn’t recommend these tours enough, absolutely superb! *Five stars*!!
Growing up in Bruges means soaking up a lot of history, which is why Simon studied a master’s degree in medieval history. After travelling the world for a few years and joining walking tours everywhere, he settled back in Bruges and set up the Legends company. These days he mostly works from behind the scenes, but if you’re lucky you can still see him in action sharing his love for history.
Growing up, Nicolas had a teacher who would end his class every day by telling an old story or legend about Bruges. Nicolas was so fascinated by these stories that he kept on telling them for years to anyone willing to listen. When his friends and family finally lost interest, he came up with the idea to start the Legends tours so he can keep doing what he loves best: telling tales of his beloved Bruges.
Louis is our grandad, born and raised in the city of Bruges and even used to own a night club here. Having lived through most of its history, there’s nothing Louis doesn’t know about Bruges’ past and present. Old of age but young of spirit, Louis tirelessly takes his groups of enthusiastic followers on daily strolls through town, never earning less than 5 stars for his infinite wisdom and boundless passion.
Lander is a local from Bruges who runs his own B&B in town called Tripel B, but on his tour you’ll usually get the L treatment: lively Lander will make you laugh out loud with his legendary storytelling and lame jokes while sharing his limitless love for the land. You will often see him wearing his red costume and top hat, so on a tour with Lander you never go out of style!

If you ever get to a crossroads and you don't know where to go, do something brave and leap into the unknown. This was Natalie's idea several years ago as she left England and never looked back. A free spirit landed in Bruges in 2012, settling in very nicely to this small city buzz. After years of being charmed by the city and its stories, she now shares her passions, knowledge and experiences with you.

As a former event planner in Mexico, Lizzy has always enjoyed giving people a good time. After falling in love with a Belgian guy she moved to Bruges and discovered the history geek in her, which is why she joined the Legends team. Besides history, you can ask Lizzy anything about the best shops around the city and the places you shouldn't miss out on to make your stay in Bruges extra memorable!

After being born and raised in Bruges Jeannine embarked on an adventure through Belgium and fell in love in Antwerp. Unable to withstand the attraction of her hometown she eventually convinced her husband to follow her back to beautiful Bruges, where they live high in the clouds with an incredible view over the skyline of the old city.
One of Jan’s ancestors was a gatekeeper in Bruges in the 1290’s. Though officially a ‘halfling’ due to having an American birthlady, his pride of his hometown is passionately conveyed through an uncanny anatomy of distinct idioms. These locutions Jan will use to always outwit you. With Jan the house always wins. Bring a smile and a good sense of humour to his tours.
