A country in which I felt extremely safe, I could walk alone at night without worrying, I could see the sights on foot and the food was also excellent. I stayed in a hostel and it was well located, close to the train stations

It was my first solo experience but was really amazing. I also visit Netherlands and Luxembourg too. I stayed in city centre and I joined a-day tours which were awesome. I really like Belgium fried and waffles.

Posted: January 6, 2024I did a nice coast trip with my friend in belgium. It is possible to drive from west to east coast by tram, 60km on one day. One ticket. Hop on hop off between beach, grass, villages and cities. Nice small cafés on the road and at the end activities on the beach.
Posted: January 3, 2024Experienced: July, 2023I had an amazing week spent alone in Belgium. I absolutely fell in love with Brussels and had no problems, even walking at night and taking pictures. Ghent was beautiful and stole a piece of my heart, an incredible place. Bruges was truly beautiful, but a bit more tourist-oriented than I usually prefer, but still worth visiting.
Posted: December 27, 2023I went to Belgium for my first solo trip in June and I really enjoyed it. I had accommodation in Brussels and from there I made day trips to Ghent, Bruges and Antwerp, which were charming cities.
Posted: October 13, 2023I traveled to Belgium for 5 days. I visited Brussels, Bruges, and Ghent. It was simply magical. I highly recommend Belgium because it is safe, centrally located to many places in Europe, and because it is such a small country, it's easy to get around.
Posted: August 11, 2023I went on a solo trip to Belgium. I stopped in Brussels, and then went to Ghent and Bruges. Charming cities. I loved it.
Posted: August 9, 2023Belgium is a beautiful country with many amazing places to see. Brussels is stunning with many interesting sights, beautiful architecture, museums, etc. Antwerp is also amazing and has a completely different vibe than Brussels. Many future designers come from there. Ghent is spectacular, and Bruges is very pretty. If you are interested in the history of World War I, there is a lot to see in Ypres and Flanders.
Posted: June 11, 2023I embarked on an 8-day trip to Belgium, spending 4 nights in Bruges (St Christopher's Inn) and 4 nights in Brussels (Latroupe Grand Place). I took a day trip to Ghent (from Bruges) and a day trip to Antwerp (from Brussels), also going on walking tours around Ghent and Antwerp. Bruges was definitely the highlight of my journey, I recommend going there 100%. Brussels is just another city, although it does have many museums and a great nightlife.

Hi all! I grew up and lived in Belgium my whole life. Overall, it's is relatively safe, and you'll easily get around by speaking English! Belgians (for the most part) are welcoming, however, you must keep in mind that the right wing party (politics) is rising which increases xenophobia. Stay aware for petty thefts, don't walk alone at night, and keep your belongings safe, particularly in big cities. Belgium has a lot to offer, it's always best if you are in a group (especially locals) to enjoy the full potential of our beautiful country. I hope this helps 🤗
Posted: July 9, 2024I think it's a nice place, although there are some areas which are more dangerous than others, I've sometimes walked after midnight alone and haven't had any bad experience yet and know some friends have done the same and haven't had any bad experience either
