Make Bruges waffles with Belgian beer, taste three brews, and take home the recipe in this lively 90-minute English workshop.
“This waffle and beer workshop was such a fun and unique experience! We got to taste a variety of delicious Belgian beers—each with its own flavor and story—and then rolled up our sleeves to make our own waffles from scratch. Mixing the batter ourselves made it feel extra hands-on, and the final result was absolutely delicious (crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside!). They even gave us the recipe at the end so we can try to recreate the magic at home. Highly recommend this workshop for anyone looking to combine classic Belgian flavors with a bit of fun and learning!”
Explore Bruges on a guided walk through medieval squares, canals, chocolate stops, and optional boat and beer experiences.

Make Belgian pralines, taste four local beers, and take home handmade chocolates in this relaxed two-hour Bruges workshop.
“Wilfred was so professional and the way he explained everything was easy to follow when making the chocolates. The beers and stories he told about where they were made and the history behind them was so informative. I would highly recommend this to any age and what a memory.”
Explore Bruges Beer Experience with an iPad audio guide, beer science, family activities, market-square views, and an optional tasting.
“tutto ottimo, soprattutto per la presenza di un'audioguida in italiano non così scontata in Belgio. Per il resto se nel reparto bar ci fosse una più ampia scelta di cibo sarebbe molto apprezzato da chi predilige bere a stomaco pieno”
Explore Belgian beer history in Bruges with an interactive audio tour, kids’ story, 16 taps, and a beer shop overlooking the square.
“We enjoyed our visit and the use of individual iPads was clever but the explanation of how to use them wasn’t clear. We would have missed a lot of information if a kind visitor hadn’t shown us what to do. We were then able to help another couple with similar issues. It was interesting and we learnt some more about beer but I don’t think we would go again.”
Taste six Belgian beers with cheese and charcuterie at Bruges’ Bauhaus Bar, while a friendly guide explains brewing traditions and local favorites.
“A well curated list of beers from around the area, and very informative guide. There was also a cheese plate provided for some snacks.”

“There were no clear instructions. We waited at the tower for nearly 30 minutes but didn’t see anyone with a yellow and red umbrella. After returning an hour later, we finally saw someone with the umbrella, but he was just a Spanish guide who had no idea about an English or any other language guided tour. In the end, we didn’t use this service, despite having purchased tickets in advance.”
Taste Bruges through lambic beer, waffles, fries, chocolate, and local history on a small-group walking tour capped at eight people.
“Would have liked a local with a more in depth knowledge of Brugees. When I asked questions the guide had no idea. It would have helped if she spoke better English. She may have been excellent in her native tongue, but of course of no use to us.”
