After a comfortable drive in an air-conditioned minivan of no more than 8 people from Paris, you’ll arrive in Bruges, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most romantic medieval cities in Europe.

Start with a canal cruise, offering the best views of Bruges’ medieval façades and most iconic photo spots. In winter, the cruise is replaced by a visit to the Gothic Hall of the Town Hall.

Your expert and multilingual guide will lead you through the historic center, showcasing Bruges’ most iconic landmarks: the Belfry and Market Square, Burg Square with the Gothic Town Hall and the Basilica of the Holy Blood, the peaceful Beguinage and the romantic Lake of Love.

You'll have free time to explore Bruges at your own pace: savor Belgian specialties such as mussels and fries, waffles, chocolate, and local beers; visit Flemish art museums featuring masters like Van Eyck and Bosch; shop for traditional products like handmade lace or simply let yourself be surprised at every corner.

    The Markt

    Markt is dominated by its Belfry, for centuries the city’s foremost edifice and the perfect look-out in case of war, fire or any other calamity. You can still climb to the top of the tower! At the foot of the Belfry are the world’s most famous chippies (frietkoten)! The statue of Jan Breydel and Pieter de Coninck graces the middle of the square. These two popular heroes of Bruges resisted French oppression and consequently played an important part during the Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302. Their statue neatly looks out onto the Gothic revival style Provincial Palace (Markt 3). Until the 18th century this used to be the extremely busy Waterhalle, a covered warehouse where goods were loaded and unloaded along the canals that ran alongside the square. Today the canals are still there, albeit underground.
