Your air-conditioned vehicle with professional driver and WiFi gets you there and back.

What to expect
You'll depart Paris in a private air-conditioned vehicle with your guide or driver and arrive in Bruges mid-morning. A two-hour guided walk covers the city's signature sights: the Belfort tower's steep climb rewards you with sweeping views across red-tiled rooftops and canals; the Beguinage Monastery offers quiet respite with its whitewashed buildings and gardens. You're then free to explore further—drift along the canals by boat, duck into breweries to taste local ales, or step through the Chocolate Museum's exhibits on cocoa-to-bar craftsmanship. Bring comfortable shoes for cobblestones. The day ends with your return journey to Paris.
