About This Tour
Join an entertaining local guide on a culinary and historical journey through the charming streets of Ghent. This walking tour combines the city’s rich heritage with its vibrant flavors, offering a perfect blend of sweet and savory treats at exceptional locations. We don't serve full meals, as this is not a traditional food tour. What is on the menu? Think cheese croquettes paired with authentic Ghent mustard, delicious Belgian pralines crafted by a Gault Millau-rated chocolatier, and a local beer enjoyed in a cozy 13th-century pub. Sample jenever (a local spirit) and try homemade broccoli beignets alongside delicious potato waffles with pickles. You’ll also visit Ghent’s oldest candy shop. But there’s more! As you stroll through Ghent’s medieval heart, your guide will share captivating stories, lots of fun facts, and fascinating historical facts that bring the city to life. A culinary adventure through Ghent you will never forget!
