Private tour of Ghent
Step off the beaten path and into one of Europe’s most spellbinding cities with our full-day private tour of Ghent—a seamless blend of medieval grandeur, local charm, and contemporary edge.
Your day begins in the heart of the city, where Gothic spires pierce the sky and canals shimmer beneath graceful stone bridges. With your private art-savvy guide—an alumna of Ghent’s Royal Academy of Fine Arts—you’ll embark on a curated walk through the ages.
The Castle of the Counts & The Devil’s House
Venture into the atmospheric strongholds of the Middle Ages. From the formidable Castle of the Counts of Flanders to the eerie facade of Gerard the Devil’s Castle, your guide will unravel the secrets behind Ghent’s most mysterious legends.
Masterpieces and Sacred Spaces
Stand before the luminous Altarpiece of the Mystic Lamb by the Van Eyck brothers inside St. Bavo’s Cathedral, then feel the quiet majesty of St. Nicholas Church—two sanctuaries that capture the soul of Flemish spiritual and artistic tradition.
Paterhof District
Wander the cobbled lanes of this picturesque quarter, where history lingers on every doorstep. A favorite with locals, Paterhof is the kind of place where time slows down—and where hidden cafés become your front-row seat to daily Ghent life.
A Patchwork of Architecture
From Renaissance to Baroque to flamboyant Gothic, Ghent’s City Hall is a marvel built like a timeline. Your guide will decode its “architectural mosaic,” offering insights into the city’s artistic evolution and social transformation.
Contemporary Ghent
This city lives in the present, too. Discover its urban pulse with a walk through Graffiti Street, a vivid canvas of ever-changing street art. Then explore the industrial neighborhoods and lush parks that show Ghent’s modern, green heartbeat.
Moments Made Personal
Whether it’s a quiet moment in a centuries-old abbey vineyard or sipping Ghent’s famous jenever in a hidden bar, your guide will ensure each stop feels like it was tailored just for you. Optional café breaks in local favorites, tastings of traditional dishes, and relaxed photo opportunities round out the day.
