Bruges at Christmas Time by Ferry

A visit to Bruges is the perfect way to start your Christmas celebrations. Relax on board the ferry and take the opportunity to stock up with Duty Free as we take a leisurely journey across the Channel to France before travelling onwards to Belgium.

This picturesque medieval city is completely transformed for the festive season. Intoxicating scents of chocolate and fresh waffles linger in the cobbled streets, which are dressed like gingerbread houses with festive fairy lights reflecting in the canal. Hop on a horse-drawn carriage for a tour of the narrow alleys, enjoy the stunning architecture or shop in the most charming Christmas market with pretty, wooden chalets surrounding a glistening ice rink, where, skaters swish and stumble in the shadow of the belfry. With 366 steps to the bells at the top, if you dare to climb you’ll be rewarded with stunning views of the chocolate box city.

Dependent on traffic conditions on the day, we aim to have approximately 5 hours free time in Bruges
