Book a TripBruges★ 4.52 · From €45Bruges on its own deserves the full day: a canal boat ride, the windmills on the old city walls and time to get lost between the gabled houses, with a stop in the village of Damme. Directions
Book a TripAntwerp & Ghent★ 4.6 · From €50Two Flemish heavyweights in one guided day: Antwerp with its cathedral, diamond district and fashion streets, then Ghent's castle and canal-side old town. Directions
Book a TripLuxembourg & Dinant★ 4.6 · From €60A full-day run to the Grand Duchy: the dramatic old town of Luxembourg City on its cliffs, with a stop in Dinant, the Belgian town squeezed between a rock face and the river Meuse. Directions
Book a TripAmsterdam★ 4.4 · From €80Brussels sits close enough to Amsterdam for a long day trip: a guided coach ride up, a canal cruise through the ring of 17th-century waterways and free time around the centre before heading back. Directions
