Obvious must see. I hear the stairs are very narrow though... Genuinely, We visited and noticed a sign in the courtyard for 'Concert 7pm' We waited in anticipation of instruments being produced, but instead, beautiful chiming from the Belfry started to sound. It was was a Belfry concert, and it was enchanting. I thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of it, and the quiet in the square. Everyone was taking the time to listen and enjoy. Go, go.

A unique experience. Many narrow steps with regular interruptions to let others pass on the journey up and down. Once at the top, virtually deafening musical bells played by a man on the floor below (formally fully automated using a giant drum) and a brilliant 360 view of Bruges. Excellent and definitely worth the admission fee!

Phenomenal view from the top, and a really interesting look into historical clockwork. Met a friendly local guide at the top who told me information about all the different landmarks and the history of the city which I hadn't heard from other sources. I would recommend going in the evening, or whenever it is least busy while you're there as it was great to be able to experience it peacefully and not have to awkwardly pass by loads of people on the steps up.€12 is a bit steep but at the same time there's not much like it so worth it in my mind.

If you have only one day in Belgium you must go to Bruges. The whole city is incredible... We had a chance to try lots of local beers, there was an special event happening in the city... So it was perfect.

Absolutely worth a visit! It's a bit if climb on the narrow stairs, but definitely worth it. The view from the top is stunning. The stairs are very uneven and it's a squish when people need to pass in the other direction, but keep going, you won't be disappointed. I do have to say, it wasn't as high as I expected it to be, but it was still a great view!
