With its convenient location roughly in the middle of the London, Paris and Amsterdam triangle, you will find many ways to travel to Bruges. Belgium is about as densely populated as China (WOW!) and due to this reason there are extensive public bus routes in place which are used often by locals. Check bus routes beforehand to avoid confusion. Bus drivers are usually quite helpful as are other passengers so don’t be afraid to ask someone for some help, unless they are carrying a knife/machete/some other weapon of choice.
If you like driving on the other hand it should be noted that drivers licenses from most countries are accepted in Belgium for up to 90 day (which is like 3 months if that helps with the math hehe). To see if your country’s license is accepted check with the Belgian Embassy website. The minimum age for renting a car is generally 25 years old or 4 years after you could start to legally drink, either way the rule is slack. If you are renting a car to travel from England, you can visit Bruges via France if you prefer to travel the new English Channel tunnel, the Chunnel, which is located on the France side at the town of Calais, about 95km (about 59 miles) from Bruges by car.
