In this 256-page compact guide, Rick Steves and Gene Openshaw team up to cover the best of Bruges and Brussels, including tips on arrival, orientation, and transportation. Visit the Groeninge Museum or tour the De Halve Maan Brewery in Bruges, then head to Brussels for the Grand Place and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. You'll get firsthand advice on the best sights, eating, sleeping, and nightlife, and the maps and self-guided tours will ensure you make the most of your experience. More than just reviews and directions, a Rick Steves Snapshot guide is a tour guide in your pocket.

Time Out Brussels is the essential companion to Europe's quirky capital. Whether travelling for business or pleasure, Time Out's insider knowledge will open up this characterful city, helping travelers through its gastronomic maze, pinpointing the best bars for Belgian brew, and immersing them in a heady muddle of cultures. A high-speed hop from London, Paris, Amsterdam, and Cologne, the city at Europe’s crossroads is as distinguished, diverse and distinctive as any continental capital. Home to the Surrealists and the Breughels, this living monument to art nouveau enjoys a gastronomic reputation second to none complemented by boundless bar crawls and style-conscious shopping sprees. Using local journalists, writers and experts, Time Out Brussels offers an informed and detailed excursion around the city and its attractions, from the Gothic and Guildhouse past of the Grand Place to Brussels’ present-day role as Europe’s capital, taking in its beers and its boutiques, its markets and its mussels, and its comics and its chocolates along the way. Beyond Brussels, the guide also delves deep into the three main metropoli of Flanders: fashion-conscious Antwerp, medieval Ghent, unsung and underrated; and Bruges, Belgium’s biggest tourist draw. Day-trips dip each side of the French/Flemish divide, from the coast around Ostend to Liege nestling on the Dutch and German borders. |
