Activity itinerary

Minnewater Lake
  • 20m
What does minnewater mean? This is the Dutch name for the lake, which is made up of two Dutch words: minne, which means both "common" and "love", and water, which means "water". Thus, the most correct translation would mean translating the word minne as "common", since these were the "common waters, community waters, everyone's water" since it was where the old port of Bruges was located, a site closely linked to the city and the daily life of its citizens.
The Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaarde
  • 10m
The beguinage is one of the most representative complexes of Bruges, a prelude to what you will find in this magical city, an environment anchored in the Middle Ages immersed in a sea of tranquility. In addition, it is declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
Mariastraat (Pass by)
You will have the opportunity to take beautiful photos from the small bridge. Go ahead without stopping.
Walplein
  • 10m
In this beautiful square, our guide will explain the history of Bruges beer.
Stoofstraat
  • 10m
Here our guide will teach us how to identify the original medieval houses.
Sint-Janshospitaal
  • 10m
In front of the Old St. John Hospital, our guide will explain how the health system worked in medieval Bruges.
Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk
  • 10m
Opposite the old Hospital de San Juan, we will find the Church of Our Lady. From the outside, our guide will explain some curiosities about the white marble sculpture of the Virgin and Child created by Michelangelo that is inside the church.
Gruuthusemuseum
  • 10m
In front of Gruuthuse, we will meet the most famous and powerful family in Bruges between the 17th and 18th centuries.
Huidenvettersplein
  • 10m
The so-called Huidenvettersplein, the Plaza de los Curtidores, is part, within the medieval complex that is Bruges, of that corner that in history is occupied by the old craft guilds.
Quai du Rosaire / Rozenhoedkaai
  • 10m
Everything from here seems taken from a fairy tale. It is impossible not to resist the temptation to take one of the boats and begin our walk through the Bruges canals at the Rosario Wharf. I used to go to this place late in the afternoon, or after dinner. You will take with you the best memories of this city, which by itself usually holds the best memories in all who visit it.
Burg Square
  • 15m
Burg Square is the political centre of Bruges, a charming place where architecture lovers can enjoy buildings of different styles that have been erected over more than a thousand years of history.
Chocolalino
  • 10m
In one of the few certified artisan chocolate shops, we will have the opportunity to taste artisan chocolates. Our guide will also tell us about the famous Bruges chocolate and give us some tips to distinguish handmade from industrial chocolate.
Boat tours - Coudenys
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
Once the guided tour of Bruges is over, you can enjoy a boat ride through the city's canals.
