Nice surprise. - We were positively surprised at all the quality information given on this subject throughout the visit. The texts are engaging and we came away with the satisfaction of having learned quite a bit about a subject which, at first glance, might be off-putting. Thank you for the welcome!!

Uniquely Historic Experience - This was a very enjoyable experience! We chose the VR, Historium & Tower ticket. VR experience was excellent but only 8 minutes long. Gives you a good insight into life in Bruges during that time period. Nice little tour with a unique experience as you are provided with headphones and digitally taken on an adventure with Jacob through old Bruges via 7 rooms with it's own unique story. At the end of this tour you pass through the beer café where you can stop and take a break experiencing some beautiful views over the market square while enjoying a drink on the balcony. Afterwards, if the Tower is included on your tour this is your last stop, climbing some stairs to reach the top of the tower for some elevated views of the market square. The top of the tower is very narrows, only allowing for one way traffic and a very short stay. However, on the way down you can stop for another view over the square on a wider balcony in a much more relaxed environment. All in all, I would recommend a visit here.

Incredible visit - Amazing, virtual reality and fictionalized tour of the painting’s creation. Very well done decor accompanied by a film. Audio-guide which then allows to have additional explanations. The children of 7 and 10 years old also highly appreciated. Recommend

Fantastic VR experience and a fun and informative historical tour about Bruges. - We went with 2 teenagers. It was expensive but well worth it. We all enjoyed the VR (first timers!) and the history of Bruges is really interesting. You learn about it in a fun way moving through different rooms where you're told a story. It kept our attention. We didn't do the Tower experience as had already climbed the Belfry.

Never again - The VR experience was fun. It was the first time for us wearing VR glasses. The walking route (with headphones) was not interesting. We thought it was boring. The view was fantastic. For us, the Historium was a setback.
