After a leisurely morning we enjoy a visit to Brussels where the Christmas Markets brighten this already vibrant city, with its charming streets and squares transformed into a winter wonderland. The Christmas markets are bursting with continental atmosphere, and the quaint snow-topped roofs of the wooden chalets offer an array of festive delights.

In the Grand Place itself, one of the world’s most beautiful squares, admire the stunning baroque façades of the guild houses and Town Hall, all illuminated and dressed in festive garlands. The square’s famous cobbles host a fabulous Christmas tree. We return to our hotel later this evening.

Would have had 5 stars for a wonderful holiday, however, the last leg of the journey on the feeder coach from stop 24 to the NEC was very uncomfortable. We left stop 24 at around 2.30pm and yes the traffic was heavy being a Friday and was told we would have a break once we had cleared the North Circular. However, it was nearing 6.30 pm (Warwick Services) before we actually stopped for 15 minutes - many people on the coach were complaining and the majority being elderly- this is not acceptable! The Highway Code recommends that drivers and riders take a break every 2 hours (hse.gov.uk). Please address this Shearings so it does not happen again!

Very organised trip with coach swapping done very efficiently to your required destination. Our couriers/drivers Lynn and Rob were extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel, Le Bois de Bruge we stayed in was of a very high standard and to be honest couldn't fault anything. The only criticism is that we paid 20 euros each for a trip to Antwerp on the 29th November and on arrival we were told the Christmas Market wasn't on until the 8th December, so we spent 5 hours wandering around run of the mill shops. No refund was offered. However, generally a very enjoyable all round trip.
