Bruges

as seen in

With its tranquil canals winding their way through one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval towns, Bruges is undoubtedly one of the most romantic cities in the world. The largest city in the province of West Flanders, Bruges is a perfect example of superb Flemish architecture, expressed in the city’s elaborate facades and the hundreds of dramatic towers and turrets that adorn them. A stroll around its quaint cobbled streets or a boat trip on its picture-perfect canals is enough to make you fall in love with the enchanting city that is Bruges.

"Bruges is a beautiful medieval city almost untouched by time. If you like jazz, you will be well catered for. If you like chocolate and beer, you will be in heaven."

– James Frain

A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000, the historic center of Bruges seems to have sprung out of the pages of a fairytale. But Bruges is not just a jewel to behold and admire. Bruges is a city that’s calling you to indulge in its charms with all your senses. Fill your eyes with masterpieces of art at the city’s museums and impressive churches, hear locals chat at the buzzing Market Square, and take your taste buds on an unforgettable trip to the realms of exquisite Belgian chocolate and waffles before sipping on top-quality beer at picturesque local breweries. A trip to Bruges is an experience to cherish for life.

Review by Susan & Samuel

I highly recommend using JayWay travel. By providing transportation between cities, organizing tours and museum tickets, and providing dining options, it made planning our very personalized 10 day itinerary so much easier! We likely would have missed out on Anne Frank and Van Gogh museums if we did not know we had to plan far in advance.

Review by Valerie & Mark

We had already scheduled a river cruise, so we wanted to see some other things in the area before and after the cruise that JayWay was very helpful in setting up. JayWay is a high quality, reliable travel agency. They are always quick to respond to our questions and having someone available to speak to while traveling is very helpful!
