Description

Embark on a guided walking tour through the enchanting city of Ghent, Belgium, combining rich history with a taste of authentic local cuisine. Your experience begins at the Jacob Van Artevelde statue in Vrijdagmarkt Square, where your local guide introduces you to the vibrant atmosphere of this historic city.

As you stroll through Ghent's medieval heart, you'll explore renowned sites such as Graslei and Korenlei, and marvel at the iconic trio of towers: Saint Bavo Cathedral, Saint Nicholas Church, and the Belfry of Ghent. Your guide will share fascinating stories about these landmarks and reveal the secrets of the legendary Golden Dragon.

The tour also leads you off the conventional path to discover Ghent’s dynamic arts quarter and the colorful Graffiti Street, where you can appreciate street art or even leave your own mark if you wish. Along the way, you'll pass by the birthplace of Charles V and the former armoury of the Counts of Flanders, gaining a deeper understanding of the city’s diverse heritage.

Here, you’ll enjoy a delicious meal crafted by independent partners, ensuring an authentic culinary experience. The menu varies daily, featuring traditional Flemish dishes or contemporary vegan options, though drinks are not included, allowing you the freedom to choose your favorite.

Once your meal is served, your guide will leave you to relax and savor the flavors of Ghent at your own pace. Whether you're a foodie or a curious traveler, this tour promises a perfect blend of sightseeing and gastronomic delight.
