Brugge Bike rental logistics
Posted: Mon November 2, 2009 05:02 AM UTC
Looking at possibly renting a bike in Brugge around May. I have seen the tourist site and these VT pages with all the info on where to rent the bike. However, how about ...

- How do you lock the bike when you stop to see something ... do they provide a lock and chain?

- Is there threft insurance on the bikes?

Should I just rent the bike to take a ride around and walk to do the rest of sight seeing (if this question makes sense) - that is, just use the bikes to go around the farther areas. Not sure how to safeguard the bike if I stop for a bite to eat or take some photos.

Brugge Thinking about Fondue....
Posted: Fri September 11, 2009 10:25 PM UTC
Hi everyone, i'm looking for some foody advice.

Some friends and myself are off to Brugge next month and really want to try some Fondue. I have searched online and most websites don't have a English Language option so i'm struggling.
Has anyone had Fondue in Brugge? Where can you recommend? Is it possible to get a vegetarian Fondue option? and around how much did you pay? (for just fondue or set meal)
I managed to find some prices but couldn't work out if that was the price for two people sharing or the price per person (if it was per person then it was very expensive!)

Also while i'm here, can anyone recommend a good/cheap italian restaurant in Brugge?

Thank you so much for any advice offered :)

Hi,

Myself and a few friends are heading to Brugge next year and we are hoping to take in the sights during the day and enjoy a bit of nightlife in the evening. whats the nightlife like in brugge, is there plenty to do and many good bars? Any suggestions welcome as we are hoping to burn the candle at both ends and cram as much into our days/nights as we can!

Cheers.

Brugge Please help me! :)
Posted: Mon July 27, 2009 10:51 AM UTC
Dear friends,

I have two nights to spend in Belgium, second one of which will definitely be spent in Brussels. Question is, where should my first night be spent : Brugge, Gent or Antwerp? (considering I'm arriving from Amsterdam by IC train)

Do you recommend doing daytrips to any of the cities i'm not staying at? I'm mostly interested in good sights, nice food, beauty and shopping.

Can you make any hotel recommendations for brussels and my second city - whichever that will be :-) ?

Last thing, what's the distance from brussels to the airport, and how can i get to the airport?

Thank you in advance for all the help..!!!

Blankenberge Sand Sculptures
Posted: Thu June 25, 2009 12:51 PM UTC
The VT email from Stephanie that has a linked to 'the world in a grain of sand' (Sand sculpture Festival in Zeebrugge) picked my curiosity. I found through research that it is in Blankenberge. However, the Belgium Tourist website does not say anything about it. I found last year's postings about it in different travel websites, but none about this year's.

Does anyone out there have the info on this? If it's happening this year and when.

Thank you.

Do you know any budget accomodation in town? I've read several tips about hotels and bed and breakfast in Brugge, but prices for accomodations there seem quite costly. I need a single room.

Thanks a bunch.

Brugge Bruges to Amsterdam using B Rail
Posted: Fri February 13, 2009 06:00 AM UTC
Hello,

I want to go from Bruges to Amsterdam on the 8th of May 09 so i am checking B rail now as often you can get cheaper fares if you book early on.

I could have sworn when i checked a little while ago that if you looked for fares three months ahead you could get one for about 23 EUR one way but when i looked today the cheapest is 44.40 EUR.

Does anyone know if I was mistaken last time i checked or perhaps there was just some special on or something? If it's cheaper to just book a couple of days beforehand I will wait until i get there to buy the tickets.

Many thanks.

Brugge Beer festival. Info, please.
Posted: Thu February 12, 2009 03:12 PM UTC
Hi all.
Last year we visited Brugge and in one of the bars, one of the locals told us about a "beer festival", or "beer week" hold in that city at mid november...more or less. It looked pretty interesting(we LOVE beer) and as this year we are not going to do a long trip, we would like to go back to Brugge and enjoy the festival.

We guess prices will rise during the fest. so in your opinion, do you think it is worthy to go to that marbelous city during those special days?

Also, are there diferent festivals in diferent cities in Belgium? I guess so, so...is it posible to get a calendar of festivals? This time we would like to visit diferent cities and go to Holland for 2 days too.

Thank you very much.
