Visit the Canals of Bruges on your Belgium motorhome road trip


Located in the heart of western Europe, a campervan hire in Belgium is the perfect holiday for single travellers or families. The country itself is easy to navigate and blessed with historic sites, world-famous artwork and museums, the canals of Bruges and Ghent and of course the must-see destination of Brussels. Many travellers from Belgium take an RV rental road trip to Germany and France and to other neighbouring European countries, but a campervan hire tour to the Netherlands is a particularly popular route.

 

Windmills, canals and a glorious history

From a political perspective, Belgium is one of the most important countries in the world. With the European Union and NATO in Brussels, it reflects the standing of the country in Europe. But it in terms of a motorhome hire road trip, there is plenty to enjoy. Art nouveau, the seaside, windmills of West Flanders, beautiful Belgian beer thanks to more than 125 breweries and great seafood.

 

Motorhome trip to Brussels    

It’s unlikely that anyone who takes a campervan hire or RV rental around Belgium doesn’t pay a visit to stunning Brussels. Rapidly emerging as one of Europe’s most popular destinations, it is blessed with a small-town charm and many attractions. One of these is the Grand Place, the central Square and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Always bustling, some of the streets are named after foods, which is apt considering there are many cafes and restaurants to enjoy – however, they can be on the expensive side. The Cathedral of St.Michael and St. Gudula is worth a look, as are the many centres of history, such as the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and Museum of the City of Brussels. Cosmopolitan and friendly, one night probably won’t be enough in Brussels.

 

Belgian cities to enjoy in an RV Rental… then Holland  

While Brussels gets a lot of publicity, Antwerp is called the ‘capital of cool’ by locals, while Bruges can be explored by boat or horse-drawn carriage. The chocolate shops are also hard to ignore. Ghent, Liege and Spa are other itinerary options. But seeing as they are neighbours, why not jump in your campervan rental and head north to Holland - Brussels is only 200km from Amsterdam. The route takes you through Antwerp and, if you deviate west in Holland, you can go through Rotterdam and The Hague.
