Easy shuttle from Port to Bruges and return. Nice bus. Less expensive than Port or Cruise transfer and same drop off point!
Very easy to find the shuttle. Exit the terminal and to your left on the street corner you will see the ticket spot outside PJ Chocolate shop. Drop off spot is the pick up spot. It’s a very beautiful and easy walk into the central part of Brugge from there. Much cheaper than any cruise ship options.
Everything was perfect. The ride into Brugge was simple and it was easy to get back to the cruise ship. Bonus: The cost was much less than the cruise ship.
We had a wonderful experience with Cruise Express in Bruges. We were visiting on a Royal Caribbean cruise and wanted transportation from the cruise port into Bruges, about a 25-minute journey. Because I use a mobility scooter, I contacted Maxine in advance. She was very communicative and explained that they would accommodate us to the best of their ability. She was honest that we might need to wait for the appropriate coach and asked us to be patient—she never made promises she could not guarantee. When we arrived off the ship, Marc greeted us and immediately knew who I was. He guided us to the coach, where a staff member was waiting to help my husband load my scooter safely into the storage area underneath the bus. Everything went smoothly. Our driver going into Bruges was excellent. He explained several times exactly where we would meet the coach for the return trip, clearly reviewed the return times, and gave easy-to-follow directions for walking into town from the bus station. This made us feel comfortable and confident exploring Bruges. On our return, Marc was again there to greet us and make sure I was comfortably settled on the coach back to the ship. Our driver, Tanguay, was especially kind and helpful. He assisted my husband with my scooter and also helped other passengers load their mobility devices. The transfer between the cruise port and Bruges was flawless. The entire Cruise Express staff was accommodating, professional, and genuinely caring. They made our day trip easy, smooth, and stress-free. We highly recommend Cruise Express. If you use a mobility scooter or other mobility device, communicate with them ahead of time—they truly helped make our visit to beautiful Bruges flawless.
Very professional, easy to work with, timely service. I did have a question before the excursion, which never got answered, but it all turned out ok. Thank you.
Perfect, almost half the price of the cruise line cost with the same service. Get the free short ride shuttle to the port gates, walk across the road, exchange your voucher for a ticket and board the coach. A twenty drive to a park on the outskirts and a pleasant 15 minute walk into the centre of Brugges
Brilliant shuttle coach service to Bruges from the port of Zeebrugge. When you get off the ship, you have to get on a free port shuttle bus to take you out the port as pedestrians are not allowed to walk around the port. The port shuttle bus drops you off right next to the Cruise Express shuttle service. The man on the desk spoke English and was very friendly. He directed us round the corner where the Bruges shuttle coach was waiting. On the way back from Bruges, the coach was waiting at the pick up point (which is the same place as the drop off point) and the man from the desk was there to guide everybody back on the coach. Our ship was due to leave at 4:30pm and the return shuttles ran from 12:30-3:30pm. The tickets had a QR code printed on them that you could scan to direct you back to the pick up point in case you got lost. Very efficient service that I would definitely use again if I return to Bruges. Good value.
Doesn’t take you all the way to Bruges. Still a 15-20 minute walk. Or a 10 minute walk to transport station for public transport.
Very easy to book, very close to ship, clean busses and nice drivers. This bus took us from the ship right to Brugge.
This is the 3rd time that we have used this service and cannot recommend it enough. Much more reasonable than the cruise prices. As a group of 5 adults and I child we saved enough for a drink and a snack while in Bruges. Shuttle leaves roughly every half hour and the same on return. Bruges is a lovely city and although this was our 3rd few hours cruise visit and a self drive 3 night stay there is always something new to see. Great food drink and hospitality. Love visiting as so easy to get around. Plenty of places to eat and drink for all pockets and the beer tasting and chocolates are Delish.
