As a guide, I promise to deliver you a high-energy, light-hearted tour that will allow you to understand the core of Ghent's history and culture. No fanciful urban legends passed on as truths, nor boring summaries of names and dates: just true stories that offer a meaningful insight into the development of an amazing town.
If you let me know about your personal interests through mail, I'll be more than happy to include stories that fit your personality!
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Travellers joining my tour can communicate the hotel where they are staying or where the guide needs to pick them up by phone or email.
You can recognise your guide by the Beardbarian logo on their clothes and guiding pass. If you're lucky and have the main guide, you can recognise him by his big black beard.
This end point of the tour is close to plenty of fun attractions, good pubs and restaurants. Don't be afraid to ask your guide for recommendations or directions.
