Bruges at Night: Murder, Mystery & Dark Stories Small Group Walk

4.9
(126 reviews)

2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

Based on true events—some surprising, some chilling. Away from the crowds. Listen to fascinating facts, ask about hidden corners, and connect with fellow travellers on this small group walking tour.

We’ll take you through Bruges’s quieter streets and hidden spots to uncover the kind of stories guidebooks skip. Learn how the world’s first stock exchange was founded here, how tax evasion became a national sport, and how Bruges once had all the wealth and power it could wish for. Hear about murder, mystery and buildings that still seem to whisper at night.

This is both a history and ghost tour. No cheap thrills—this is real history, told through storytelling: fast-paced, surprising, and fun.

Unlike the big crowd tours, we keep things small and personal. You’ll be able to hear your guide, ask questions, and actually engage.

♡ Small group = more connection
️☺ Real stories, not tourist traps
️♖ Quiet streets & hidden corners
☾ An evening atmosphere you'll remember
