Option 2 – BELvue Museum & Coudenberg Palace

Alternatively, learn about the history of Brussels and visit the remains of its former palace at the BELvue
Museum and Coudenberg Palace. The BELvue offers a condensed and interactive history of this tiny, yet
diverse country. Beneath the BELvue, lies the entrance to Coudenberg, which was entirely lost until
1986. While workers were creating the Mont des Arts we know today, they unearthed the remains of
the 12th-century palace of the Dukes of Brabant. Inside the site, you are underneath the busy Place
Royal. (You can even feel the trams rumble by overhead). You eventually emerge on the other side of
the square in a museum of findings from the dig.

Option 3 – Royal Museums of Fine Arts & Magritte Museum

The Royal Museums of Fine Arts comprises six different museums and more than 20,000 works of art.
Located on Mont des Arts, you can find the Musée Old Masters Museum, the Musée Modern Museum,
the new Musée Fin-de-Siècle Museum, and the Musée Magritte Museum. Visit any combination of eras
that interest you. (My favourite is the Fin-de-Siècle Museum highlighting the stunning Art Nouveau and
Art Deco periods). To get a handle on Belgian Surrealism, don’t miss the Rene Magritte Museum,
dedicated to the country’s most famous surrealist painter.

Luxembourg City Tour

Spend the day in Luxembourg City exploring by foot. Visit the UNESCO listed city fortifications, the
Casemates Bock, built in the 18th century. Enjoy the view from the Viaduc (Passerelle), stroll through
the pedestrianized Old Town, visit the lovely Notre Dame Cathedral and admire the architecture of the
Palace of the Grand Dukes (Palais Grand-Ducal). For an easy way to get around and an overview of the
city’s history, book a seat on the Hop-On-Hop-Off Bus tour.

Mont des Arch

Pretty Monts des Arts is a hub for Brussels cultural scene.Mont des Arts is home to some of Belgium’s
best museums and architecture. Wander through the small formal garden before heading up the stairs
towards Place Royale. Don’t forget to look back towards the arch, to see the unique Jacquemart Carillion
clock with 24 bells. From the top of the stairs is one of the best views of central Brussels. From here you
can see the spire of the Town Hall building and, on a clear day, all the way to the Atomium.

Hotel Details :-
Where to Stay in Brussels Center

Luxury Option – The Dominican Hotel

The Dominican Hotel offers a luxurious night’s sleep, just steps away from Brussels stunning Grand
Place. Nestled on a quiet side street, the Dominican’s award-winning design is a contemporary
interpretation of the 15th century Dominican Abbey, from which it takes its name. Enjoy a drink in the
trendy lounge bar before heading out to explore the historic centre of Brussels. Check current prices
here.

Budget-Friendly Option – Motel One

After testing this German design hotel chain in Munich, I was thrilled when Motel One opened in
Brussels Centre. While the word ‘motel’ may conjure up images of seedy roadside stop-over spots to
North Americans, this hotel is anything but. What the rooms lack in size they make up for in amenities
and design. This is a beautiful, clean, modern design hotel, just minutes away from Central Station all for
a very wallet-friendly price. Check current prices here.

Day 1 – Arrive in Brussels

central station brussels city centre

Arrive in Brussels at Central Station – close to some excellent hotel in the city centre.Today is light on
activities to give you time to arrive, battle jet-lag, and give you time to settle in at your hotel and get
your bearings. Grand Place at Night

Don’t miss seeing the UNESCO World Heritage Site listed Grand Place at night. While the square bustles
with tourists and locals during the day, in the evening it is quietly elegant, under the lights of the
Brussels Town Hall and Maison du Roi.

Day 2 – Visit Brussels Museums

Grand Place in Daylight

The Grand Place during the early morning, to best admire the detailed carvings on the guild-houses
surrounding the square. Try to guess the guild by the decorations on each building. You probably won’t
be too surprised to learn; the largest guild-house is owned by the Belgian Brewers Association. For more
insight on the buildings and Brussels history, consider arranging a guided tour. Options range from free
walks with locals to exclusive custom tours on a theme of your choice by foot, bike, or vehicle.

Take the elevator at Zwardstraat, up to Place Poleart to admire the Palais du Justice, Brussels Supreme
Court. Don’t be afraid to step behind the scaffolding to admire the architecture of this enormous

the arch through the free Royal Military Museum. Opposite the Military Museum, you can visit the 350
vintage vehicles at the AutoWorld Museum. Or, head instead to the excellent Cinquantenaire Museum,
part of the Royal Museums for Art and History, for their collection of antiquities from civilisations from
around the world. There’s a unique collection of Art Nouveau decor inside as well.
Day 5 – Discover Wallonia

Explore Villers Abbey

Get up early to enjoy the scenic route to Luxembourg. Take a break from driving at Villers Abbey, in
Villers-la-Ville. This crumbling Cistercian abbey is filled with atmosphere and history. Wander through
the medicinal garden and restored abbey vineyard. Walk through the pretty little town of Villers-la-Ville
and grab a bite to eat at one of the local cafes.

Experience the Battle of the Bulge in Bastogne

Make your next pit-stop at Bastogne, to visit the city liberated by the Allies in 1944. Visit the Mardasson
Memorial, just outside the city, honouring the American soldiers wounded or killed during the Battle of
the Bulge. Then head to the excellent Bastogne War Museum, opened in 2014. Military history buffs will
also enjoy the Bastogne Barracks and Vehicle Restoration Center.

Day 6 – Explore Luxembourg City

Casemates Bock, built in the 18th century. Enjoy the view from the Viaduc (Passerelle), stroll through
the pedestrianized Old Town, visit the lovely Notre Dame Cathedral and admire the architecture of the

the E411 highway. Stop in the city to take in the dramatic Citadel and Notre-Dame Collegiate Church.

Day 8 – Explore Ghent

Castles, Canals & Counts in Ghent

Start your day in Ghent by strolling along the Graslei waterfront on your own or with a private guide.
You can catch one of the popular canal boat tours here, or continue on foot to the imposing
Gravensteen Castle. The ‘castle of the Count’ dates from 1180 and was the seat of the Counts of
Flanders until the 14th century. The castle served as a courthouse, a prison and even a factory and was
slated to be demolished at the end of the 19th century. Luckily, it was saved and, over the years, it has
been restored and opened to the public. Inside is a rather gruesome display of torture devices used in
Ghent’s past. The highlight of a visit to the Gravensteen is the view from the ramparts of Ghent’s
stunning skyline with its three medieval towers and many historic buildings.
Day 9 Day-trip to Bruges or Antwerp

The colourful Unesco-listed centre of Bruges, Belgium

Alternatively, make your day-trip to bustling Antwerp. Leave your car parked safely in Ghent and take
the reliable Belgian rail system to arrive in style at the country’s most beautiful train station. Head to the
Grote Markt (Main market square) to admire the architecture of the town hall and the stunning Onze-
Lieve-Vrouwekathedraal (Cathedral of our Lady). Don’t miss the fountain that shows the (rather
gruesome) legend of how Antwerp got its name. Legend has it, the giant Antigoon forced everyone who
passed on the river Scheldt to pay a toll. If they refused, he cut off their hand and threw it in the river.
Silvius Brabo, a Roman soldier, killed the giant and threw his hand into the Scheldt. The name Antwerp is
said to have come from the Flemish hand werpen (hand throw). From the Grote Markt, continue a little
further to the Scheldt waterfront to view Antwerp’s bustling port and Het Steen castle.

Day 10 – Return to Brussels for your flight home

Don’t forget to stock up on chocolate and Belgian beer!
