Daytrip to Brugge from Paris?
 
Is it easy to daytrip from Paris to Brugge? Any tips on the simplest way to go? Is there a direct train? ABout how long of a trip is it? Thanks for any advice.

You'll find a lot of valuable information on the topped thread 'Train from Paris to Brugge'.

Thanks, topper! Exactly what I needed!

Brugge is a bit far from Paris. Brugge is an easy day trip from Lille (Rijsel in Flemish). Lille is in France, of course.

I agree with Sam, a trip from Paris to Brugge in my opinion makes sense if you are for a long time in Paris, if not it seems more common sense to enjoy Paris, paying expensive Paris hotel rates, and then move on to wherever you wish to visit paying in most cases cheaper hotel rates. and not waiting time on trains both ways.<BR>

Ooops, I meant waisting time....

There are many more desirable day trips from Paris than Brugge. Brugge is fine from Brussels but from Paris try Normandy, Chartres, any of the Chateaus, Strabourg &amp; the list goes on...

Graziella, are you sure you didn't mean WASTEING time? I think &quot;waisting time&quot; refers to having a big lunch or dinner.
