- 3 nights of first-class accommodations in a standard room at Radisson Blu EU Hotel in Brussels
- Daily breakfast
- Brussels walking tour
- All airline taxes and fuel surcharges
Days 1–3: Arrival and Walking Tour of Brussels
You’ll spend the majority of Day 1 traveling from the United States to Brussels. The flight takes approximately 8 hours. After settling in at your hotel, you can spend Day 2 exploring the city at your leisure. Make yourself at home with a flavorful Belgian ale in a local pub, or tour a chocolate factory to see how Belgium’s most famous treat is made.
- Where you’ll stay: The Radisson Blu EU Hotel, adjacent to the European Parliament. The hotel offers free breakfast and WiFi, a bar and restaurant, and a fitness room and sauna.
- Walk to Cardinal Mercierstraat on the morning of Day 3 for an included walking tour of Brussels. You’ll see colorful gardens in Market Square, the soaring grey spires of Gothic churches, and other historical monuments.
- Grand Place: Look closely at this 15th-century town hall and you can make out statues of historical figures adorning its façade.
- Church of St. Nicholas has been part of the Market Square for over 1,000 years. Notable sights include a religious painting by Rubens and a cannonball that’s been wedged in one of the church’s supporting pillars since 1695.
Days 4–5: Leisure Time and Optional Tours of Ghent and Bruges
You have 2 more days to take in Belgium’s sights. Spend Day 4 exploring the hidden corners of Brussels, or take an optional side trip to Ghent and Bruges ($66/person).
- Visit St. Bavo’s Cathedral in Ghent to catch a glimpse of Adoration of the Lamb, a mid-15th-century masterpiece by Hubert and Jan Van Eyck. It’s in the midst of a detailed restoration.
- Must-see in Bruges: Michelangelo’s famous Madonna statue, which resides in the medieval Church of Our Lady.
- Lake of Love: Cobblestone paths and weeping willows skirt the shores of this peaceful lake, which the locals call “Minnewater.” Keep an eye out for wild swans gliding by—they’re a fabled symbol in Bruges.
- Return to the United States after breakfast on Day 5. The flight departs from Brussels and takes a little over 8 hours.
