Ghent river cruises, Belgium

What's great about Ghent river cruises?

Canal-side architecture and a booming Flemish food offering are two of Ghent’s calling cards. Its student population outnumbers the tourists who visit each year, giving this Belgian city a cosier feel than Antwerp or Bruges. Foodies give Ghent a massive thumbs up thanks to its flourishing culinary scene. Head out into the city streets, meanwhile, and you’ll have your pick of Medieval buildings to photograph – like the 12th-century Gravensteen castle and the Graslei, a row of pointed guildhalls beside the harbour.
