Explore one of the most visited and amazing cities in Europe with your official private guide and driver. Bruges is a city of canals, with many narrow winding streets and squares, and a plethora of gabled houses. The city flourished as the capital of the Counts of Flanders from about 1000 to 1346.

The city is now a prominent tourist destination known for its historic centre, brugs gins (traditional alcoholic drinks), and medieval canals that give the city an old-world charm. There are tons of historic buildings to explore, such as the Basilica of the Holy Blood, one of Bruges' most notable attractions.

In this private tour of Bruges, a knowledgeable and passionate guide will show you the city’s hidden gems, share its folklore, and give you an insider's perspective.

The Basilica of the Holy Blood is a Roman Catholic church located in Bruges, Belgium. The basilica houses what is said to be a relic of the Holy Blood traditionally believed to be from the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The blood is said to liquefy only at certain times, and is then held in one of the many vials contained within the reliquary.The construction for this church was begun in 1388 and was completed about a century later.

The belfry was built in 1339 and is one of the finest bell towers in Belgium. It is 83 meters high and has a magnificent glockenspiel. It is entered from the Halle's inner courtyard and the view from up there is spectacular. To admire the best view of Bruges, follow the 366 steps up to the top of its tower.

The park is situated in the heart of the city and it is a popular destination for locals and tourists. The area around the park includes many historic buildings such as Begijnhof, Castle de la Faille and Beguinage. The Minnewater Bridge was built in 1931 by Dutch engineer Emil Mennens. It has been considered one of the most important bridges in Belgium because it connects two parts of Brussels that were historically separated: Leopold Quarter and Ixelles.
