Descrição geral Discover in a peaceful manner the history and heritage of one of the best-preserved and most visited medieval cities in Europe: Ghent. Take a stroll through its well-known places and also through those hidden gems that shine with their own light. Any king has the privilege of being born as such, but very few can boast of what Charles V found as soon as he entered the world. Ghent is one of Belgium's brightest jewels. It still retains all its medieval charms, its towers, the guilds that made it powerful, and many of the most beautiful and mysterious places you can imagine. How about exploring them in depth? Here we tell you how to do it!

All you have to do is book this guided tour so that the best local expert guides can open the doors of the city wide for us. In Ghent, what is seen is beautiful, as well as what is not visible to everyone. For example, why are its inhabitants known as those with 'the rope around their neck'? It's a mystery we'll solve together! And like this one, many more!

And we can tell you without fear of being wrong that the best way to do it is by moving around. That's why we'll head to Saint Bavo's Cathedral. Its high stone walls guard the brightest treasure of the Van Eyck brothers: 'The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb'. What does it symbolize? Why is it one of the greatest works of history? We'll tell you everything!

Right next to it, we'll see the Belfry of Ghent. A very peculiar bell tower that acts as an observatory and also as one of the towers visible from any side. A few steps away is the City Hall of the city, right in the heart of it. Do you know what the essence of Ghent is? You'll discover it here!

But if we want to go back to the 16th century, to the medieval era, it's best to immerse ourselves in the Ghent of those years. The Graslei and Korenlei Quays were one of the most important at that time. Nearby are the ancient guildhalls, of which some traces still remain today. Which one do you think you'll like the most? Also, we'll pass by the Meat and Fish Halls, where local citizens bought their products in the 17th century. Why were they so important for the city's development?

Passing through the Patershol district, also known as the weavers' district, we'll reach the Castle of the Counts of Flanders. It is the only one from the medieval period that has survived, and its high stone walls hide many legends and curiosities without which it would be very difficult to understand the city. We'll tell you all about them! Additionally, as we walk through the streets of the city, we'll provide you with all kinds of recommendations to make the most of your adventure in Ghent.
