This was an extremely good value and a great way to learn about the neighborhoods and culture of Brussels! My tour was just me, one other participant, and the guide, so it was basically a private tour for the price of a small group tour, and it lasted well over three hours, meaning we got to see nearly all the neighborhoods of Brussels. I’m glad I did this tour to get a better idea of the city and all it has to offer!

We had a terrific guide, Martin, who was patient, knowledgeable and interesting. A great way to see a beautiful city.

Fantastic day trip! My bestie and I absolutely loved it. Easy and convenient and plenty of time to explore and shop

It was wonderful. Our guide was very considerate and the driver is very good. Great trip.

My host was very well informed and we made many food stops.
