Antwerp & Ghent Day Trip
Day Trip Details
At the designated time, we'll meet at De Ruijterkade, number 151, to begin this day trip to Antwerp and Ghent. Are you ready to explore the historic legacy, rich culture, and stunning architecture of two of Belgium's most popular destinations? Let's go!
First, we'll discover Ghent, a city that blends a medieval atmosphere with a modern spirit. Upon arrival, we'll admire the Gravensteen, a fortress evoking the life of the nobility in past centuries. From there, we'll head toward Saint Bavo's Cathedral, an architectural and artistic treasure that will leave you breathless with its Gothic elegance.
You'll have free time to grab a bite to eat and try a dish from Belgian cuisine. Then, we'll regroup to explore the Korenmarkt, surrounded by historic buildings such as the City Hall and the guild houses, dating back to the 16th century, that reflect the city's splendor during its Golden period. Its staggered facade is a true symbol of Belgium.
Our trip will continue in Antwerp, where we'll start with a guided tour at Grote Markt, a square surrounded by elegant Renaissance buildings with a long-standing cultural tradition. In the center of the square, you'll find the Brabo Fountain who, according to legend, was a brave hero who defeated a giant. We'll tell you this in-depth story while enjoying the square's vibrant ambiance.
Afterward, we'll head toward the Cathedral of Our Lady, a majestic example of Gothic architecture that houses masterpieces by painters like Pedro Pablo Rubens. Later, we'll stroll along the famous Diamond Quarter, where you'll find some of the most prestigious jewelry in the world. In this district, you'll learn about the diamond trade industry in the city.
Finally, we'll return to the starting point, where we'll arrive after a total of 14 hours.
