Bruges and Ghent are two charming, small towns in Belgium, each just a short train ride away from Brussels. In a perfect world, Bruges and Ghent each deserve their own day for exploring. However, if you are short on time, you can visit Bruges and Ghent in one day.
We visited Bruges and Ghent in one day from Brussels. It’s a long, busy day, but we loved it. For the best experience, you need to get an early start. Bruges, the more popular of these two towns, tends to get very crowded midday. To avoid spending your valuable time in line, get to Bruges in the morning.
On this day trip, you can stroll fairytale streets, dine on waffles and chocolate, take in the view from two belfries, go on a canal cruise, and visit an ancient castle. Here is our exact itinerary through Bruges and Ghent. Enjoy!

Basilica of the Holy Blood, Bruges, Belgium The Basilica of the Holy Blood (Heilig-Bloedbasiliek) presides over the central plaza known as the Burg or Burg Square.

The tour guides in both Ghent and Bruges were excellent. I had to speak up to secured time to see Saint Baafs Lamb of God (separate paid admission but worth it!). Also ask when it will be opened-I almost missed seeing it in all its glory. Pictures do not do it justice! Rating was lowered 1 star because the transportation was late for all three pick ups - on a cold and rainy day. There was no water provided, which was tough considering the tight time table for the tour. There was also no time scheduled for lunch (not a big deal for me, but some may find it disappointing).
