Free Tour Bruges in Spanish - Complete

Yes, we also offer these tours in Bruges in the afternoon. It is one of travelers’ favorite times. We recommend checking the calendar for availability and booking in advance to secure your spot.

Bruges is said to be very touristy, but that’s because it is stunning. In summer, it’s not as hot as in other European cities, so you can comfortably stroll along its canals and cobblestone streets.

The best way to start is with a free tour. You’ll hear stories about the city, legends of the witches that give the place its name, and get oriented for the rest of your visit. There are tours of the historic center and other more thematic ones.

Between March and November, you can take a boat ride along the canals. It lasts about 30 minutes and is quite romantic. You’ll see the medieval houses from another perspective and pass under beautiful stone bridges.

In July, there is the Cactus Festival, from the 11th to the 13th this year. It’s an outdoor music festival in Minnewaterpark. People bring blankets, lie on the grass, and enjoy the music. The atmosphere is very relaxed.

From late July to early August, there’s the Klinkers Festival. There are concerts of all styles throughout the city, especially in Markt and Burg squares. It’s free, and the nightlife atmosphere is fantastic.

The Belfry Tower is 83 meters tall with 366 steps. It sounds like a lot, but the views from the top are worth it. On clear summer days, you can see the whole medieval city and the surrounding fields. Be prepared for a line, though.

The Begijnhof is a haven of peace. These are 13th-century white houses where beguines lived — religious women but not nuns. The gardens are very green in summer and it’s perfect to escape the bustle of the center.
