Touring from Zeebrugge
Zeebrugge is the cruise port for Bruges, one of the most beautifully preserved medieval cities in Europe. The historic center sits about 15 kilometers from the pier, with its network of canals, Gothic architecture, and cobblestone market square making it one of the most rewarding day trips on any northern European cruise itinerary. Beyond Bruges, the port also offers access to Ghent, another Flemish city of medieval guild halls and waterways, and to Brussels, the Belgian capital with its Grand Place and Art Nouveau neighborhoods, roughly 100 kilometers by road.
A guided Zeebrugge shore excursion lets you explore Bruges with an English-speaking guide on your group's own schedule, rather than following a fixed coach itinerary. Whether your group wants the highlights of Bruges in a half day, a full day combining Bruges and Ghent, or a longer run into Brussels, the day can be built around what your group actually wants to see. All Zeebrugge shore excursions include our back-to-ship guarantee, so your return to the pier is never in question.
