jeanlyon Posted May 7, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I think you have to take the shuttle to Blankenburg and then the train to Bruges. If you do, then take the canal boat ride. It's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Moho Posted May 7, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi We went last August and took a taxi, €100 set price. The taxis were there as we came off the gangway. We checked the trains etc but timings didn't fit in. We were in the centre of Bruges before any of the coaches arrived so it was great to see it quiet. The taxi driver arranged to pick us up where he dropped us off - worked great for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanwithahat Posted May 8, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Our first cruise was to Bruges/Guernsey , we went for Guernsey (Mrs Hat has always wanted to go back there) but we really loved Bruges, great fun. AFAIK (we used P&O ....) you can book a taxi (I think it's possible to do this in advance) or you can go to the local station, Blankenberg (?) by shuttle (may want to check) and get a train in.

Midsomer Madness Posted May 9, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Get the shuttle bus into blankenburg and then get the train into Brugge, around 11 minutes past the hour going and around 35 minutes past the hour returning, cost is approx 6 euros return, although it was cheaper at the weekend, very reliable clean trains, journey on the train takes 10 minutes or so. You can then either walk into Brugge centre from the train station which is around 15 minutes or get a taxi or bus..we do it this way whenever we visit Brugge. We tend to get the earliest shuttle bus and train, have a few hours in Brugge, then return around 1:30 and have a wander around blankenburg before getting the shuttle back to the ship. Brugge is very expensive, we paid 11.50 euros for a gin and lemonade and 19 euros for 2 medium beers..the waffles are fabulous! Have a good trip!
