Our walking tour with Fraser gave a good overview of the history of Brussels. The guide was easy to find. He was informative, knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and funny. Fraser can rest easy that we walked away with new facts to stimulate our brains...lol...He was helpful in recommendations of the area, restaurants, waffles, chocolate, and Belgium fries. The pace was perfect. Would recommend this tour.

We had a fantastic tour of Brussels with Fraser this morning. He was an excellent guide — knowledgeable, engaging, friendly, and full of fascinating stories and insights about the city. He brought Brussels to life with a great mix of history, culture, local recommendations, and a good sense of humour. The tour was really well paced and never felt like a dry history lesson. Fraser made everyone feel welcome and was happy to answer questions, making the whole experience feel relaxed and personal. It was a brilliant way to see Brussels and learn much more about the city than we would have discovered on our own. I would highly recommend Fraser’s tour to anyone visiting Brussels — an excellent guide and a thoroughly enjoyable morning! Thank you Elaine Duncan Suzi and Ian.
