Overview

You’ll jump back in time to explore Brussels with our host - not to worry, you won’t need a time machine. Take a scenic 1-hour train from Brussels to the enchanting medieval city of Bruges and the minute you step out into the streets, you’ll feel like you’re in a fairytale. Meander through the cobbled streets, alongside the canals and discover why this Flemish city is known as “Venice of the North”. Together with you host, you’ll explore beautifully persevered medieval landmarks like St John's Hospital, the Begijnhof and the Beguinage.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded local host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
