Getting to Belgium...

Here you will find information and links to airlines and trains to help you get to Belgium and around Europe. Our friendly staff can assist with you travel planning and often save you money by finding the cheapest deals for you and your traveling companion.

Where is Belgium..

Belgium is the “Heart of Europe”, and home to the European government (the EU). It is geographically located right in the middle of Europe with easy links to London, Paris, Amsterdam and most central EU cities.

Known worldwide for its waffles, chocolate and lace, Belgium has many quaint medieval towns, ancient town squares, and exquisite cuisine. Official languages are French & Flemish. English is widely spoken so it is easy to get around in your native tongue.

Brugge, where the surgery takes place is a beautiful medieval city, a 1 hr train journey from Brussels, the capital, see www.brugge.be. For more info on Belgium click here or visit "The Lonely Planet Guide" also www.VisitBelgium.be
