Combine the Christmas markets of Bruges with a guided walking tour through the city and its highlights.
Enjoy a narrated panoramic drive with scenes of the Flemish countryside, before arriving in Bruges for a walking tour followed by free time for shopping.
As you enter this historical old town, the beautiful medieval atmosphere is immediately evident. Cobble-stoned streets twist and turn and centuries-old buildings hover over the main canals. A guided walk will take you through the picturesque city passing the Market Place with its merchant guild houses, the Belfry Tower, Town Hall and the Gothic-style Chapel of the Holy Blood (exterior views only).
There will be enough time to browse independently around Bruges. The city centre is transformed by the charming Christmas Markets in the city’s squares; browse around the pretty stalls selling hand-made decorations, gifts, chocolates and tasty local delicacies. The traditional step-gabled buildings decorated with sparkling lights, the huge Christmas tree and the ice rink in Market Square all add to the delightfully festive atmosphere.
Your guide will lead you to the romantic ‘Lake of Love’ to rejoin your coach for the journey back to the ship.
Notes:
The transfer to Bruges is approximately 30 minutes by coach. This tour requires a moderate level of walking over cobbled streets. Lunch has not been included to allow maximum flexibility.
