What To Expect
Minnewaterbrug
What does minnewater mean? This is the Dutch name for the lake, which is made up of two Dutch words: minne, which means both "common" and "love", and water, which means "water". Thus, the most correct translation would mean translating the word minne as "common", since these were the "common waters, community waters, everyone's water" since it was where the old port of Bruges was located, a site closely linked to the city and the daily life of its citizens.
The Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaarde
The beguinage is one of the most representative complexes of Bruges, a prelude to what you will find in this magical city, an environment anchored in the Middle Ages immersed in a sea of tranquility. In addition, it is declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

5.00Our day trip to Bruges and Ghent was great. Everything felt smooth and personalized from start to finish. Our guide has a rich historical knowledge and was full of great details. The entire day flew by and we left with a deeper appreciation for Belgium’s rich culture. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a thoughtful, engaging way to explore two of Belgium’s most captivating cities.

5.00Our recent tour of Bruges and Ghent was a wonderful introduction to the charm and some of the vibrant history of Belgium. Bruges was picturesque and steeped in medieval history. Our guide Erik’s passion for storytelling made our day particularly enjoyable as he expertly highlighted some of the key historical facts of the places we visited and shared many of the local folklores as well. The transportation was very comfortable, allowing us to relax and enjoy the scenic Belgian countryside. Our lovely driver Samad was very accommodating, on time, and put us at ease with his safe driving, kind demeanor and excellent attitude. We greatly appreciated Erik’s ability to navigate around the larger tour groups so we could more fully enjoy iconic sights like the serene Lake of Love (Minnewater Lake), the Begijnhof (UNESCO world heritage site) and the busy market square with the impressive Belfry. Moving on to Ghent, we were grateful to have Erik at our side to give us an insider’s view of his home town. He helped us pick out some amazingly delicious local dishes for lunch (a fish soup, a rabbit stew and an excellent Trappist beer). After lunch we continued to explore Ghent—which was a lovely blend of medieval and Renaissance architecture and a more modern university town feel. It was wonderful to get to walk by the Castle of the Counts and to visit Saint Bavo Cathedral and see the alter piece "Adoration of the Mystic Lamb" by the Van Eyck brothers in person—photos do not do it justice. We were shocked at how quickly the day flew by and will definitely have to come back and spend more time exploring each city.
Perfect Exploration of 2 Classic cities!

5.00We made a last-minute decision to go on this tour, and thankfully, the company accommodated our request. The next morning, we were off to the enchanting medieval town of Bruges an absolute gem! It turned out to be the best day we spent outside of Brussels. Highly recommended! Don't miss the Groeninge museum. Our guide, Mariane, and driver, Amit, were fantastic!

5.00We had a wonderful time on our tour, and both the driver and tour guide were fantastic. Bruges and Ghent were stunning, and the guide did a great job of connecting the buildings and historical figures to their historical context. The entire experience was smooth and effortless, which was exactly what we were hoping for with a private tour. Many thanks to Amine and Frank.
