Itinerary
The place where we meet you at the cruise terminal! Let us know if you'd like to return here on time to get some shopping done - there's some lovely boutiques there.
An old fortress town that played an important role in transferring the cargo of mighty see vessels into smaller ships. Today a quaint and romantic whisper, known for its curious book shops. Not always on our road - but we can have a stop here if you'd like.
"The white town" is a pearl on Bruges' necklace. You will be amazed by its massive church tower, much bigger than you'd expect for a town with less than 2000 souls. A grand souvenir of its many wealthy visitors. We usually only drive past this place, but we can stop here for a quick walk and a fresh ale - if you'd like.
The highest tower in all of Bruges holds treasures beyond imagination - not simple gold or chocolate, but art that tells the story of the people. From magnificent tombs to a rare Madonna statue. If you'd like to see the art in person - you can add this into your tour!
This gothic palace was built on the wealth stemming from beer! Nowadays a museum dedicated to the lives of the medieval elite. If you'd like to include the museum, feel free to ask - we can make it an add-on.
The most picture-perfect place in all of Bruges - with view of the reflective canals, ancient facades (some not-so-ancient) and the Belfry tower. It can be busy - but we'll make sure to get you plenty of photos.
Once the home of our Counts, this is an old place of power. You can still feel the presence of counts, princes and mayors in the stunning architecture that surrounds this square.
The wonderful old town that became the heart of Europe's trade in the 14th and 15th century. Nowadays known for its marvelous guild houses, churches and vibrant atmosphere. It's no accident movies like "In Bruges" or "The Monuments Men" take inspiration from this town.
A rare place where medieval women could build a life of their own - hidden behind walls of religion and regulation. Discover the impact of their presence on the life in Bruges, and why these places are so special.
The big bell tower that dictated the rythm of every day for our medieval ancestors - while serving as a reminder of the power and privilige they held. If you'd like to climb the tower - do ask, we can make it an add-on to your tour!

About Bruges
Bruges is a medieval Flemish city of canals, cobbled squares and brick gables, its historic centre protected as a World Heritage site.
Bruges grew rich in the Middle Ages on the cloth trade and as a port joined to the sea by a channel, until the waterway silted up and left the city almost untouched for centuries. The Markt square is overlooked by the Belfry, whose 366 steps lead up to a carillon and a view across the rooftops. A short walk away, the Burg holds the Gothic city hall and the Basilica of the Holy Blood.
Top-ranked sights in Bruges: Burg Square, Market Square (Markt), Minnewater (Lake of Love).
