So, you have one week in Belgium and you’re wondering how to spend it? You have come to the right place! I’ve just returned from a week in Brussels, Ghent and Bruges and had a fantastic time. Let’s not talk about how much weight I put on eating all the amazing Belgian stew, waffles and Belgian chocolates! The good news is that a week is the perfect amount of time to see the highlights of Belgium. You will enjoy a more relaxed pace and have more local experiences than those who rush in to see Bruges in one day from the cruise ships. I’m happy to share my Belgium itinerary with you, and I have no doubt that you’re gonna love it….
What to pack for Belgium
What to pack for Belgium will depend on what time of year you travel. If you are going in the summer then take plenty of leggings, cycling shorts and T-shirts with a light fleece and rain Mac. If you are going in the winter then add a few jeans and jumpers with a heavier wind and rainproof overcoat.
