Full description

Meeting at the Grand Place every day at 8:30, groups travel by train to Bruges and Ghent in a single ten-hour excursion. A local guide introduces the historic center of each city, and the order of the visits shifts with the season and visitor flows.

Reviewers like the guides' historical explanations and photographic viewpoints and find both cities easy to walk, though one found the pace tiring and the schedule too tight for extras such as boat rides. Return train travel between Brussels, Bruges and Ghent is included.
