Experience Highlights

Bruges is really the most enchanting city of Belgium. The entire city is protected as UNESCO heritage. Your expert guide takes you to the beguinage and you visit the chapel. We enjoy a guided visit of the Church of our Lady with the tombs of the Dukes of Burgundy, the Madonna by Michelangelo, painted by Caravaggio. Passing the museum of the Flemish primitives we walk to the Belfry Tower on the Market Square, the Burg Square with the Town Hall and visit to the upper and lower Basilica of the Holy Blood… We wind up at the foot of the Belfry and the medieval market square.
The guide will give you loads of hints for things to do during your time off. Yet, you could also decide to follow your guide off the beaten tourist tracks as he or she will take you to one of the many charming places of interest in town but which have not been discovered by tourists yet.
The highlight of the day will be the boat tour along the canals of Bruges.

    The tour company provided very good service. The guide was very professional and well informed. I'd like to visit again in the off season (if there is one). It's a lovely scenic place but was packed with tourists (like me) which made everything crowded.

    Tour was very nice. We covered most of the old town and had a good boat ride through the river and canals.
