Come with us for a day out to beautiful Bruges.
Visit the main market square that surrounds an open-air ice rink in the shadow of the Belfry tower.
Sample the mulled wine, hot chocolate, artisanal cheese, local beers and waffles.
Then a short walk to a smaller more cozy square that has a focus on handcrafted goods and local products.
There’s also the Winter Glow Light Trail winding through the historic centre.
You can come solo, meet the group at St Pancras and spend the day exploring Bruges together.
