5 days in Ghent Itinerary

Ghent melds the fairy tale-like beauty of Bruges with its stunning Flemish architecture, while at the same time supporting a vibrant cafe and bar scene.

Venture out of the city with trips to Bruges (Stadhuis, The Markt, &more). There's lots more to do: step into the grandiose world of Gravensteen, admire the striking features of Het Belfort van Gent, take in the waterfront at Graslei and Korenlei, and let your taste buds guide you at a local gastronomic tour.
