What to expect

Take a trip from Paris to Bruges, a World Heritage site know as the "Venice of the North".

Starting in the early morning, you'll cross the northern districts of Paris to take the motorway in direction of the Belgian border. Around 11.15 am and after a quick stop for refreshments, you'll arrive in Bruges.

In the winding streets in the historic heart of the city, your guide will explain the history of the Flemish region and of the city of Bruges, a World Heritage site. As you listen to the commentary, you will admire this medieval city that has preserved all the splendor of its original architecture, colorful charm, art of living and its centuries-old traditions. You’ll visit the historically rich town center by foot, admiring the Beguinage, Notre Dame Cathedral, the gothic style Town Hall, the Bourg Square with its church and the magnificent Big City Square, its quaint houses with decorated facades and the indoor market with the Belfry (duration of the guided visit: 1.30hrs).

In the summer you will also ride on the famous, romantic canals, and admire the city, a genuine open-air museum, from another point of view (the canal cruise is only included from April 1st to October 31st).

You’ll have free time for lunch (not included) in one of the local restaurants with Belgian specialties such as "moules frites" (French fries and mussels) and an extensive selection of beers. A visit to the Flemish Art Museum or shopping for handmade lace and Belgian chocolates are amongst the most popular ways of spending an afternoon at Bruges. You’ll leave Bruges at 4.30 PM.
