Starting from London, travel to the coast, across the English Channel & onwards into Belgium to discover the wonders of Bruges, a city famous for its romantic beauty.  With its enchanting canals, cobbled streets, distinctive buildings and iconic town square featured in a number of films including In Bruges & Guardians of the Galaxy, Bruges is a beautiful city to visit.

On arrival, your tour manager will walk with you to the center of the city, into the Markt (town square) with its famous Belfry (Bell Tower) and colorful traditional buildings, many of which are cafes and restaurants. You will then have the rest of the day as free time to explore Bruges independently.  You might want to enjoy a Belgian beer and frites (chips/French fries), try a delicious Belgian waffle, see the city from a boat on the canal or go shopping before boarding the coach back to London at the end of the day.

From late November until mid December, this tour is offered on multiple Saturdays as:  Bruges Belgium Christmas Market Day Trip from London
