With a group from or to Leuven
Leuven is a university city, and you can see it in the groups that set off from there: student societies on their way to a cantus (a student singing night) or a ski trip, research groups on a study trip, schools on an outing. The centre is small and easy to explore on foot, but a coach cannot just park there. That is why the city works with stops where visitors can briefly get on and off, and with car parks on the edge of town where the coach waits.
If you are visiting Leuven, the town hall, the Oude Markt, the University Library and the Groot Begijnhof are within walking distance of each other. If you are setting off from Leuven, you are soon on the E40 to Brussels or Liège, or on the E314 towards Limburg and the German border.
