Description

Meet your guide at a central Paris location and begin your journey north to Belgium. Travel comfortably in a 9-seater premium van, explore two of Belgium’s most culturally rich cities, and enjoy the personalized attention of an expert English-speaking guide.

Walk through Ghent’s Gothic cathedrals, vibrant canals, and famous medieval castle before heading to Brussels, home to world-renowned squares, royal arcades, comic culture, and iconic landmarks.

In Ghent, visit Saint Bavo’s Cathedral, home of the legendary Ghent Altarpiece (exterior visit). Stroll along the Graslei and Korenlei, stunning canals lined with historic guild houses. See the Gravensteen Castle (Castle of the Counts), a 12th-century fortress in the city center. Admire the Belfry of Ghent, a UNESCO-listed medieval tower, and St. Nicholas’ Church, an iconic gothic landmark overlooking the old town. Stop at Vrijdagmarkt Square, a bustling historic market square perfect for photos.

Your guide will also recommend the best spots for Belgian waffles, chocolates, and local specialties.

In the afternoon, head to Brussels and explore its unique blend of royal architecture, comic culture, and world-famous monuments. See the Charles Buls Statue, the entrance to Brussels’ historic heart. Visit the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, Europe’s first luxury shopping arcade, and the Tintin & Comic Strip Shops, a must-visit for Belgian comic enthusiasts.

Stop at the Grand-Place, a UNESCO-listed central square and one of the most beautiful in Europe. See the Manneken Pis, the city’s beloved bronze statue, and the Jeanneke Pis, the quirky companion statue. Visit the Delirium Café, home to thousands of beer varieties (optional free time).

You’ll also have time to stroll, shop, enjoy local food, or pick up artisanal Belgian chocolates. At the end of the day, return to Paris in comfort and enjoy a complimentary drop-off directly at your accommodation.
