About the Ride
Escape the hustle and bustle of Brussels and spend a day in the Belgian countryside. This is a fantastic opportunity to breathe in fresh air and enjoy the tranquil moments offered by this picturesque town.
On the road, your Welcomer will also serve as your local guide, sharing historical facts, essential information about the sights, and, of course, personal insights to immerse you in the Belgian lifestyle. Feel free to add or remove stops from the suggested itinerary and tailor the ride to your preferences. Take pictures, ask your driver about hidden gems, or seek recommendations for local delicacies and where to taste them.
Your tour will begin in the heart of the medieval city of Bruges, at the Markt, a large square where tourists mingle with locals. Here, you can admire the imposing Belfry tower, the top of which offers a breathtaking and unforgettable panoramic view of the city. Architecture lovers will be amazed by the stunning buildings around Brug Square, including the Basilica of the Holy Blood, the City Hall, the Oude Griffie, and the Palace of Justice, each showcasing unique styles. Wander through the scenic Walplein and navigate its narrow alleyways, such as Stoofstraat. Your driver will show you St. Salvador's Cathedral and the Church of Our Lady, where you can marvel at their richly decorated interiors. In the latter, you’ll have the chance to see the most celebrated treasure of the church: a white marble sculpture of the Madonna and Child by Michelangelo.
The main attraction of Bruges, however, is the Lake of Love. Take a leisurely stroll with your significant other through the peaceful Minnerwaterpark. According to local legend, if you walk over the lake bridge with your partner, you will experience eternal love. This makes the Lake of Love an exceptionally romantic spot. Enjoy the stunning scenery from the lake bridge, relax on one of the benches along the lake, or simply stroll through the calm park and capture amazing photos.
Lastly, the most photographed location in Bruges is the Quay of the Rosary. Everything here looks like it’s straight out of a medieval tale, with castle-like buildings gently touching the water, all perfectly maintained.
At the end of the tour, your friendly Welcomer will drop you off at your accommodation.
