Description

Join us on a full-day excursion from Brussels to discover three of Belgium's most iconic cities: Antwerp, Ghent, and Bruges. Before leaving the capital, we'll take a tour of some of Brussels' most stunning and lesser-visited areas, allowing us to discover a different side of the city. During the tour, we'll see stunning sites such as the National Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Koekelberg, one of the largest churches in the world, as well as other neighborhoods and grand avenues off the beaten tourist path. Our first stop will be Antwerp, a city linked to the painter Rubens and known worldwide as the diamond capital. During the tour, we'll see some of its most iconic landmarks, such as the Grote Markt, the Town Hall, the Cathedral of Our Lady, and the old commercial heart of a city that was once one of the most important economic centers in Europe. We'll then continue to Ghent, one of Flanders' medieval jewels and the birthplace of Emperor Charles V. During the guided visit, we'll explore its spectacular historic center, where highlights include St. Bavo's Cathedral, the Belfry of Ghent, St. Nicholas' Church, the historic quays of Graslei and Korenlei, and the imposing Castle of the Counts of Flanders, while discovering the history of a city that once rivaled the most powerful in Europe during the Middle Ages. The last stop will be Bruges, considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and one of the best-preserved medieval sites on the continent. You'll be able to discover iconic places such as the Market Square (Markt), the Belfry of Bruges, Burg Square, its romantic canals, and its charming cobbled streets steeped in history and tradition. An ideal experience for those who want to see the best of Flanders in a single day, combining guided visits, free time, and some of Belgium's most important landmarks in an unforgettable day.
