OVERVIEW

Spend hours exploring the Old Town of Bruges on your own with no schedule to follow, which will allow you the freedom to visit the attractions that sound most intriguing. During the drive there, the escort will describe possible places to visit, answer questions and provide a detailed map so you can maximize your time. You will be dropped off at the border of the city of Bruges, a wonderfully atmospheric area with plenty to see and do. You will be free to meander wherever you wish, but you might consider visiting The Belfry, an iconic tower built in the 13th century. For the ultimate view of Bruges, climb the 366 stairs to the top, which for centuries was used as a lookout for fires and other threats to the city. You might also walk about the square out front as it has abundant shops and restaurants. The Provincial Palace, a 19th-century neo-Gothic masterpiece is nearby.
