Best time to visit
Bruges is lovely year-round, but October and November are ideal: fewer crowds than summer and pleasant temperatures (10-15°C). December brings Christmas markets that fill the city. Summer (July-August) sees higher prices. Winter (January-February) is cheaper but colder and greyer.
What to do when you arrive
Brussels airport (Charleroi or Zaventem) is 60-80 km from Bruges. Bus or train are the most budget-friendly options. Once in the city: stroll Grote Markt (Market Square), climb the Belfry Tower, take a canal boat tour, visit the Basilica of the Holy Blood. Eat Belgian waffles and chocolate. The medieval centre is pedestrian-friendly and easily covered in two days.
