It rained a little during our visit, but that made Bruges even more charming. The wet stones reflected the lights of the old houses, and the canals looked like mirrors. Our guide kept everything lighthearted, and we laughed together under our umbrellas. It turned into one of the most special travel days of my life.

What stayed with me most wasn’t only the beautiful city, but also the feeling of calm. Walking on cobblestone streets, hearing the horses’ hooves, and watching boats pass by the canal gave me a sense of stepping back in time. I left Bruges with a full heart.

Bruges touched me in a way I didn’t expect. The beauty of the old buildings, the reflections in the water, and the quiet atmosphere made me pause more than once just to take it all in. I really appreciated how the tour gave us freedom to explore while still feeling guided and cared for.

I’ve been on many shore excursions before, but this one felt different. Our guide didn’t just give us facts, he told stories that made the city come alive. I could almost imagine medieval life while standing in Markt Square. The moment we tried fresh Belgian chocolate, I knew this day would stay in my memory.

We had just enough free time to enjoy a coffee in the square, watch the horse-drawn carriages pass, and pick up a few lace souvenirs.Returning to the port felt bittersweet , I was ready for the next part of our cruise, but Bruges had completely captured my heart.

We began with a gentle walk through the Markt square, where our guide pointed out the colorful guild houses and shared the story behind the iconic Belfry Tower. Highly recommended!

I’ll never forget tasting my first warm Belgian waffle here. It was so fresh, with whipped cream melting into the crispy edges.The short drive to Bruges flew by as she shared interesting stories about the city’s history.

The guide was knowledgeable but didn't talk clearly, his. Microphone kept slipping so it was hard to hear. He walked way too fast, and never turned around to make sure the whole group was with him.
