Walking with the Beer Master. - Patrick was a superb guide. Master Beer Sommelier and incredibly educated and knowledgeable about the history of Ghent as well. Paced us according to our interest in trying exotic Belgium beers and seeing the old town. Wonderful afternoon. FYI - be ready for some serious Belgium beers.

Great tour - This was a really fun and informative tour. We learned a lot about Belgium beer and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Loved trying all the different styles of beer and this was a great way to see the city. Our guide even gave us personalised recommendations for places to get some good beer in the town we are staying in.

Fantastic Beer Walk - We had an amazing time with Ariel on our Beer Walk. He was incredibly well informed and was able to answer all our questions. It was great to hear about the history of Ghent through the lens of beer brewing. Highly recommended!

Excellent Tour!! - My husband and I loved this tour!! Tom, our tour guide, was knowledgeable about not only the beer but the history of Ghent, too! It is hard to teach my husband something new about beer, but he learned several new things through our tour. Our tour guide, Tom, took us around town and helped understand the history behind Ghent and Beer. After living in Belgium 7 years, I tried beers that I had never heard of or never though to try and I am glad I did. I have a few new Belgian favorites now. Definitely a must do activity in Ghent!

Best beer tour ever! - This was one of the best tours I have ever had on viator. Ariël Meeusen was so engaging and welcoming. His knowledge of Ghent and beer blew my friend and I away. We tried many beers that we never had heard of and learned so much. Each beer was more delicious than the last. We wish we could have talked to and hung out with him more. We will definitely book another tour with him next time we are in Belgium!

Brilliant gift! - Bought this tour as a gift for two people spending a long weekend in Ghent. They absolutely loved it - their guide was also knowledgeable about Ghent’s history and architecture so they got so much more than a beer tour, and they had such a good time they stayed an hour or so longer than scheduled! Awesome experience, really pleased.

Fantastic Beers and Fun History - Our guide was very knowledgeable, pointing out architectural and civic history of Ghent as we walked from pub to pub. The pubs were a mix of old/traditional to more modern styles. Our guide tried to be flexible on offering beers that suited our interests. Great tour!
