We had the guide Martin and he was absolutely amazing!! He talked as if he cam from the past, he made the issues of back then sound so personal. It really was as if you were listening to a time traveller that came to current times Bruges to tell you about what it was like then. He was playful and really made personal contact with everyone in the group. Me and my friend were incredibly tired by the time we had to start the tour yet Martin still managed to get us excited almost from the beginning of the tour. He really did such an awesome job!! Definitely a recommendation to do this tour if you're visiting Bruges. It makes walking trough the cities afterwards much more interesting because you know why the houses look like they do. Really an awesome tour!!
