Hi, my name is Natalie and I currently live in the lovely historical university town of Leuven but...
Itinerary not perfect? Message Natalie L. to build a tour that’s just right for you.
Is Bruges charming, picturesque and romantic? Yes, for sure. Is it a photogenic medieval Disneyland? No, it is not! It is so much more than that. The entire inner city of Bruges is classified as UNESCO World Heritage and each of these charming buildings has a long history (many dating back to the Middle Ages) and interesting stories to tell. Let me take you through these beautiful medieval streets and squares, bridges and canals and discover the history and stories behind the façades. Is Bruges very touristic? Yes, no doubt, its beauty and reputation attract a lot of people from all over the world. BUT you don't need to be stuck in the crowds, there are ways to avoid this. Most tourists limit their visit to the main squares. We will go way beyond that, visit the highlights (we'll try to visit at the least busy time) but also the hidden gems where the crowds don't go. Discover the advantages to visit with a local! Because we have all day to discover Bruges, we'll be able to see many more hidden gems!
The itinerary is flexible and is meant to be customised. So if you have any specific interests, preferences or requests, please let me know. On our walk through the city, we'll see (some of) these sites (depending on speed and time): Church of Our Lady (with Michelangelo's Madonna with Child) The Market Square with Belfry Beguinage (one of my favourite kind of buildings) City Hall Almshouses (Public housing avant-la-lettre) Bruges' canals and bridges (Bruges is often called Venice of the North for a reason) Hansa quarter with the former Nation Houses of the main merchant nations Rozenhoedkaai Basilica of the Holy Blood Jan Van Eyckplein (the former port) Minnewaterpark (with the famous white swans) The old Fishmarket (both the one for the rich and the one for the poor) Gruuthuuse city palace Old St. Janshospital (one of the oldest hospitals in the world) City gates and ramparts Windmills Adornes City Palace and Jerusalem Church A few local delicacy stops? And too many more to sum them all up here. . .
