Our guide Tim was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the history of Brussels. He made the walk very interesting. The waffles and chocolate were yummy. Beer tasting was good and we all enjoyed a meal together at the end. Would definitely recommend this tour as a great way to see the sites of Brussels particularly at the beginning of your trip.

Great tour to take while in Brussels

Paul_B, Apr 2024

A fun and interesting tour, the tour guide was excellent and the food/beer on the tour was all very delicious.

Great Experience

Lisa_I, Apr 2024

What a wonderful experience! We only had a day in Brussels so this was a great way to taste Belgium food and learn the history all at once. We would definitely recommend.

Fun tour

Karin_A, Apr 2024

This tour was fantastic. Our guide - Walid - was smart, personable, funny, engaging, and very knowledgeable. Be aware that it is a tasting tour, not an eating tour. You get delicious treats (chocolate, a waffle or fries, and delicious beer), but don’t make the same mistake I did: do eat something before the tour!

Had fun

Dee_S, Apr 2024

Had a great time. Great tour guide and great group. Friendly and relaxed. We stayed at the pub, with our group, after the tour was finished.

Informative and charming

Cindy_N, Apr 2024

Left the tour knowing a lot more about Belgium and its culture and hisotry. Memorable parts were learning about the architecture. Our tour guide was personable and engaging.

Totally wonderful tour and tour guide!

Keith_S, Apr 2024

Tiago was great. Humorous, knowledgeable, and friendly. The tastings were wonderful. At the last stop, the beer tasting, Tiago described each brew as a father talking about his children; passionately and lovingly. We sat in the Pub drinking and talking as a group for quite some time.

The tour was great and...

Christina_F, Apr 2024

The tour was great and definitely worth the money! The tour guide was really informative and we had a blast

Great tour

q44pt5fvj7, Apr 2024

Guide was fun and knowledgeable. He covered the best parts of town with history and quips perfect in length and detail

Excellent tour! Lots of history and delicious tastings!

Stacy_P, Apr 2024

We had an excellent tour with Thiago! We learned so much about Brussels that we missed walking around the city without a guide. The history and stories that Thiago shared were funny and interesting and would captivate any audience. We tried the best chocolates, and you could choose from a waffle or fries, and ended with a flight of beer. We also left with a few restaurant recommendations and really enjoyed the rest of our trip in Brussels. I highly recommend this tour!

Amazing experience!

Tori_G, Apr 2024

Such a great experience! We enjoyed learning about the history of Brussels and various sites we visited along the way. The fries and waffles were tasty, and the flight of beer was delicious!

Excellent over iew

Elizabeth_B, Apr 2024

Great guide - very knowledgeable - took us to authentic shops/ restaurants for chocolates, fries, waffles, beer flights so we could taste the best of the best! Wonderful guided tour - got a real feel for what Brussels is all about.

Tasty and informative

Kayla_K, Apr 2024

We enjoyed this tour! Tiago was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot and laughed a lot. The food we tried was all fantastic. We really loved everything he introduced us to and went back to many of his recommendations. It was the perfect way to get acquainted with the history and food of Brussels! Also, if you have to choose between the fries and waffle, DO NOT MISS THIS WAFFLE! Hopefully you have multiple people in your group and you can get both and share.

Great Introduction to Brussels

J_C, Apr 2024

Our guide, Sardar, was capable and knowledgeable, with just the right touch of humor. Best of all, for those of us with less than perfect hearing, we could hear him! Completing the tour with an unhurried beer tasting was great fun. I would recommend this experience to anyone!

Great overview of Brussels

Nicholas_S, Mar 2024

Nice way to see some of the best parts of Brussels. If you only have a few hours I strongly recommend it. If you are in town for a while maybe not as needed. Tim was a great guide and the trip was much longer (for the good) than advertised.

A tour that didn’t disappoint!

BARBARA_R, Mar 2024

Walid was informative, engaging and attentive. We thought the tour was definitely worth the time and money. We stopped for chocolates, fries, waffles and ended the tour at a beer pub. I am not a fan of beer but he made sure I had something to my liking. We hung out as a group at the bar, long after the tour had officially ended.

This was an amazing...

McKenna_P, Mar 2024

This was an amazing experience. You got to try a lot and drink some amazing beers! You not only learned about Brussels but also the EU/Belgium. Highly would recommend this!!

Mostly enjoyable

Michelle_K, Mar 2024

We really enjoyed our Brussels walking tour. Our guide was knowledgeable, accomodating and for the most part entertaining. He was very gracious with offering suggestions above and beyond the tour. The only thing that prevented a 5/5 was several negative comments were made about the Catholic Church. My family is Catholic and I found this offensive but still overall tried to ignore these comments and did enjoy the tour.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you for your generous comment, Michelle. I am sorry to hear that you heard negative comments about something you value in your life. I will personally discuss with your guide to understand what comments were made and will make sure this type of comment will not occur in the future. I am sure he did not have any ill heart as Belgian culture is known for self-mockery of their practices. I apologise sincerely for this and I am sure your guide would say the same sincerely. Thanks again for joining our tour.

Good…could be better

Angelo_D, Mar 2024

Good tour & guide. For the price I was expecting a little more food and drink. We did a similar tour in London for a fraction of the price..

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you for your feedback Angelo. We see all comments as a way to improve ourselves. We noted your points and will check the reference you made in London to compare. Thank you.

Perfect way to start your trip

Suyash_G, Mar 2024

Tim is a very passionate guide, the stories behind the various important buildings and parks and statues were all very fascinating. He spent time with everyone in the group to know their preferences and answered every question we all had. The quizzes for arbitrary points were super fun, I might be sitting on a few thousand points 😂. The chocolates and waffles were great and the beer was the highlight of the night, gave the people a chance to connect and for Tim to make personalized recommendations for each of us. I highly recommend this tour, it's worth every penny!

Great guide fun tour give it a try!

Alina_D, Mar 2024
