Tournai with a private driver
Tournai is one of Belgium's oldest cities, and it shows: the five-towered Cathedral of Our Lady and the belfry, both UNESCO-listed, overlook a triangular Grand-Place lined with historic façades. The Scheldt flows through the city, guarded by the Pont des Trous, its medieval emblem.
From Brussels, a drive of about an hour on the A8 takes you to Picardy Wallonia. Your Atemia driver spares you the train connection and drops you outside the cathedral, at the Museum of Fine Arts designed by Victor Horta or at the offices of your business partner in the region.
On the doorstep of France, Tournai also serves as a base for a combined trip to Lille and its metropolitan area. We link several stops within a single booking with a chauffeur at your disposal, in a vehicle chosen according to the number of passengers and the amount of luggage.
