TRAVEL TO GHENT
By plane:
Fly into Brussels Airport and then take a train to Gent (main railway station in Gent is called Gent – Sint Pieters)
By train:
Trains from the Airport in Brussels run several times per hour and the ride takes about 1 hour. There are direct trains (only on weekdays), but most of the times you have to switch trains in Brussels.
Be careful… There are 2 train tracks going from Brussels to Gent… a slow one and a fast one. So check the arrival times in Gent as the first train leaving Brussels may not be the 1st to get you to Gent. You can check the website of the Belgian Trains and you should fill in Brussels Airport as start and Gent-Sint-Pieters as stop.
From train station to city center:
Tram 1 (every 6 minutes) or tram 24 (every 20 minutes). Exit at Korenmarkt.
Or take a taxi.
