"We had an amazing time with Yves on our tour of Ghent and Bruges! Yves's knowledge and passion for these cities made the history come alive.
The beer tasting was a highlight-Yves introduced us to some incredible Belgian beers and shared interesting facts about each one."
J.R. Tripadvisor
What does a multi-day trip look like with Beardbarian?
Think of it as a “best day in Belgium” - designed like a film, not a checklist. You tell us what you’re curious about (history, beer, architecture, WWII, hidden corners, food), how you like to move, and how much energy you want to spend - and we build a day that flows.
That can mean staying deep in one city, adding the surroundings for contrast, or linking two cities in a way that makes sense geographically and narratively. The goal is always the same: strong story, great pacing, and zero time wasted on the annoying stuff.
And no, you won’t get a generic “here’s the route” PDF. After you reach out, we’ll send a few tailored concepts you can react to, then we refine the plan to match your style and budget. Want to skip the back-and-forth? Book a video call - and we’ll deduct the call cost from your tour invoice.
Example tours of Belgium
Medieval Gems
Bruges - Ghent
(9 hours)
The two gothic pearls in Belgium's west
Two cities. One medieval power story. Zero stress. This 9-hour private day trip links Bruges + Ghent with transport included, so you can enjoy the magic without watching the clock.
In Bruges, we step into the world of merchants and city pride - with the Bruges Town Hall as a perfect stage: ornate, ambitious, and built to show that this wasn’t some sleepy town, but a player on Europe’s biggest trade board.
Then we roll on to Ghent, where the mood turns bolder. The Castle of the Counts isn’t just “a castle” - it’s a reminder of who held power, who fought it, and how a medieval city learned to stand its ground.
Along the way, the day is paced for comfort: smart timing, smooth transitions, and a story that ties both cities together instead of treating them like separate checklists. You get the highlights, the hidden texture, and the kind of context that makes the stones feel alive.
Of monks and mastery
Brussels -Breweries - Bruges
(10 hours)
On the hunt for the source of Belgian craft beers, monasteries and trappists.
Start your day in Brussels with a smooth pick-up at the Juliana Hotel - then trade politics for pilsner as we kick off with a beer museum visit and tasting to set the tone (and the vocabulary) for what comes next.
From there, we leave the city behind and head into the countryside, where Belgian beer stops being a “product” and becomes a landscape: small breweries, quiet roads, and places where tradition still runs the show.
The pace is intentionally relaxed - enough time to taste, ask questions, and enjoy the ride without turning it into a sprint.
Midday, we make a pilgrimage to the Westvleteren monastery for lunch - simple, iconic, and perfectly placed as the calm heart of the day.
Then we continue toward the coast, ending in Bruges with a final brewery visit and a walking tour through its medieval streets - the ideal contrast: rich flavors, then rich history, all wrapped into one seamless 10-hour adventure.
The hero's of 14-18
Ghent - Ypres - Bruges
(10 hours)
Tracing the bloody battlefields, where an entire generation fell in Belgian mud.
Start your day in Ghent with an easy pick-up, then head west into the landscapes where the First World War carved its deepest scars - a 10-hour private excursion that also doubles as a smooth transfer to Bruges.
From there, we move through the former front zone with a story-first approach: trenches, memorials, cemeteries, and the towns that lived in the shadow of the lines.
And because every group connects to this history differently, the route stays adaptable - we can highlight different sectors, museums, and battle narratives depending on your interests and nationality.
British, Australian, Canadian? There’s far more to this chapter than “just Ypres.” We’ll shape the day around the regiments, places, and perspectives that matter to you, with the right balance of depth and breathing room.
Then, as the heavy stories settle, we carry you onward to Bruges - arriving not drained, but grounded - with the logistics handled and the day’s history still echoing in a way you won’t forget.
