Tour with a local guide, everything went very well, seeing the typical places of Brussels. Christopher was very engaging.
This was a perfect tour for out family. We definitely came away feeling much more informed about Brussels’ history, waffles, and chocolate as well. I was a bit unsure at first since it was our first time booking a family tour, but it turned out to be a really smooth and enjoyable experience. Despite the rainy weather, Daniel kept everything light-hearted, engaging, and very professional throughout. We’re really glad we went — thank you!
Elodie was wonderful! We were a family of four with two kids (ages 6 and 10), and she was incredibly kind and full of energy. She showed us some of the highlights of Brussels and shared plenty of great tips along the way. She was truly the best part of our visit to Brussels!
Sophie arrived right on time and from the beginning she made the tour really special for my family and I. She showed us many places around Brussels that we definitely would have missed if we had explored on our own, from lively squares and beautiful galleries to some fun spots along the comic route. She was very knowledgeable about the city and shared plenty of interesting details along the way. We would absolutely recommend doing this walking tour in family.
Morgan was great! He showed us all the major sites and made the tour kid friendly. He was informative and took time to answer all of our questions
We did the 3 hour tour of Brussels with Daniel in a personalized family version and it worked out beautifully for all of us. He was enthusiastic, informative, and a real gentleman, keeping everyone engaged the whole time. We loved discovering the hidden gems away from the crowds together. We can truly recommend him!
Great tour guide! Brought us to the best attractions in Brussels. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Gave us great tips where to eat and buy the best chocolate.
This tour blended Belgian history and fun beautifully. Our guide Lucas was fantastic and truly made it memorable for us. He was extremely well-informed, engaging, and genuinely funny—thanks so much, Lucas!
Our family had such a wonderful time exploring Brussels with Elodie! From the moment we met, she made everyone — even the kids — feel comfortable and engaged. She shared fascinating stories that brought the city’s history to life, while also keeping things fun and interactive. We visited famous landmarks along with hidden corners we would’ve never found on our own. It was the perfect way for our family to start the trip — educational, relaxed, and full of laughter!
Our tour was absolutely fantastic. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Jonas. It was our first time in Brussels, and the experience was exactly what we hoped for. Jonas shared the city’s history and culture with such charm and humor, making everything easy to enjoy. We finished the tour with delicious waffles and chocolates — the perfect ending to a great day
