Money tips for Brugge, Belgium

  • Fair taxi price (official, daytime): €140 - €180. Use the official taxi rank outside arrivals. Agree on the price or insist on the meter before setting off. Unlicensed drivers approaching you in the terminal will quote inflated rates.
  • Best alternative: Train from Brussels Airport to Brugge, changing at Brussels Central or Ghent (€25)
  • Validate your ticket in the machine on board the bus as soon as you board. Not validating can be treated as travelling without a valid ticket. Fine without a valid ticket: €70.
  • Tip 5-10% in restaurants if service is good. Round up in taxis and for short tours. Tipping is appreciated but not mandatory.
  • Service is usually included in the bill, so check before adding a tip. Cover charges are uncommon in Brugge but always check the menu for stated prices before ordering. Avoid restaurants around the main square that display menus without prices.
  • Always choose to be charged in euros and decline dynamic currency conversion at ATMs and card terminals. Prefer bank-attached ATMs over independent machines in tourist areas, which can carry high fees.
