Brussels is a city with many wonderful and special facets – no matter the time of year. Strolling through the Grote Markt, often considered one of the most beautiful squares in the world, allows the Belgian ›Art de Vivre‹ to be experienced first-hand. Enjoy gastronomic havens and quaint pubs, admire stunning Art Nouveau houses, explore luxurious shopping arcades or hunt for bargains at lively flea markets.
In spring, the city blooms with visitors drawn to the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken and the vibrant floral displays at Groot Bijgaarden. Summer brings a lively atmosphere to the squares and a variety of events that showcase the city’s vibrant culture. During the festive season, the European Christmas market with stalls and delicacies from all the member states delivers a truly magical experience.
After settling into your first-class accommodation and getting a feel for the city, head out on a city tour to discover the highlights of Brussels. Following the tour, enjoy a mouthwatering portion of the famous Belgian fries – an absolute must-try! The rest of the day is for relaxing at leisure – whether strolling through the city, visiting a cozy pub or restaurant or simply unwinding at the hotel.
Taking a walk through the beautiful city centre of Brussels around the Grote Markt is a memorable experience. Admire the spectacular architecture of the old Town Hall and the charming guild houses, and get a real sense of the city’s rich history and vibrant atmosphere. Tasting stops along the route include typical Belgian chocolates and the renowned local beer – adding a flavourful touch, allowing you to experience Brussels with all your senses. End the day with an exquisite Belgian beer menu, carefully paired with each course – the perfect way to unwind and savour the local culture.
After breakfast, continue on your independent return journey. We’d be delighted to help you plan a sightseeing tour en route.
