A gentle day in Lille: cobbled lanes of Old Lille, the Vieille Bourse, the Palais des Beaux-Arts and free time on the Grand-Place.
Less than two hours from many parts of Belgium, Lille makes for a relaxed and charming day out. Old Lille is lined with Flemish façades of brick and carved stone, old-fashioned shops and pastry shops. The Vieille Bourse, whose inner courtyard is home to second-hand booksellers, opens onto the Grand-Place and its belfry. In the afternoon, the Palais des Beaux-Arts, one of the largest museums in France, can be enjoyed at your own pace, with lifts. Your coach drops the group close to the centre and picks it up at the same spot: an easy rhythm with no long walks.
