Sebastian showed us corners of Bruges we would never have seen otherwise. He knew so much about the story and packed that knowledge super excitingly. A great experience!

Great experience with a knowledgeable guide - good way of burning off a few calories gained from all the beer and waffles

A wonderful way to explore Bruges! The comfortable bikes take you to many sights and through the picturesque alleys and streets. Our guide Gottfried led us safely at a calm pace, so that you have time to enjoy the area. His explanations and stories were very interesting, varied, and filled with a love for Bruges. We learned a lot about the history, architecture, and life in Bruges, both past and present. Thank you very much!

We booked a tour with retro bike tour and had a lovely afternoon. We could escape the busy city center and saw Bruges from a different angle. Godfried was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, made sure everybody in the group understood what was said, he was calm and easygoing. We would definitely recommend doing a tour with them!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful afternoon exploring Bruges with us and enjoyed seeing the city from a different perspective. Godfried will be very happy to hear that you appreciated his knowledge, calm and easygoing approach. It was a pleasure having you on the tour, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back for another ride in Bruges someday! Warmly, Eveline
The 5:30 PM time slot is perfect for avoiding the crowds in the city streets.
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que le créneau de 17h30 vous ait plu. Pour les familles ou les personnes qui recherchent une ambiance un peu plus calme, le début de soirée est souvent le moment le plus agréable. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau pour une prochaine visite! Cordialement, Eveline

One of the highlights of our cruise adventure in Bruges! Mercedes was insightful about the city and helped us navigate some busy streets. Would highly recommend as fun way to see Bruges.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear our tour was one of the highlights of your cruise visit to Bruges. Welcome back next time you visit Bruges! Warmly, Eveline
Absolutely the best way to see all of Bruges! The tour was well thought out, bikes were so much fun, and our tour guide was amazing!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you had such a great time exploring Bruges with us. Fantastic to hear you had so much fun! Warmly, Eveline
Bruges, Guided Retro Biketour Worried at first about riding bicycles on cobblestones but it turned out to be fine. The tricky part was avoiding pedestrian tourists, but our tour leader Eveline was a great navigator and historian. This 2 ½ hour bike tour went through the town and all the way around the canal boundaries of this beautiful city. Eveline, with her charm, city geography and historical knowledge, provided interesting facts to our multi-lingual small group. While I can’t remember all of our visits, I had a great time seeing the city and learning factoids like the underground pipeline from the brewery to the Half Moon restaurant. After the bike ride, our small group enjoyed beers or soft drinks in her quiet garden. Highly recommended, even for hesitant bicycle riders.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Lawrence! I'm very happy to hear that your worries about cycling on Bruges' cobblestones disappeared so quickly and that you enjoyed discovering the city by bike with us. It was a pleasure guiding our small international group through the historic streets and along the canals, and I'm glad you found the stories and historical facts interesting! I'm also delighted that you enjoyed relaxing in our garden after the tour. Sharing a drink and chatting together is one of my favorite parts of the experience. :) Thank you for your kind words and recommendation. I hope to welcome you back to Bruges one day for another ride and to share even more hidden gems with you! Warmly, Eveline
