Hello all,
You seem a well travelled bunch so I was hoping to get your insights on the 'must sees' in Belgium and Luxembourg.
I have three days and two nights there over new year with a provisional itinerary as follows:
Tuesday 30th:
Dover-Dunkirk Ferry (around midday).
Dunkirk to Ghent. Look around Ghent.
Ghent to Waterloo. Overnight in Ibis Brussels Waterloo *** £54
Wednesday 31st:
Waterloo battlefield key sights.
Brussels - Autoworld, Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History, general city centre architecture.
Brussels to Luxembourg City. Overnight in Sofitel Luxembourg Europe ***** £99
Thursday 1st
Luxembourg City - casemates, viaduct, general city centre architecture.
Lux City to Remich - look around.
Remich to Bastogne - look around.
Bastogne to Leuven - look around.
Leuven to Dunkrik - 10pm ferry.
Are there any particularly good sights I've missed? Am happy to roam quite a way, especially for fortifications and motoring themed attractions, or striking architecture. Nothing is open on the 1st so that has to be mainly outdoor viewing.
Maastricht would be in reach, as would Antwerp - would you take these over Leuven?
