Tell Me About Brussels! | First Day Must-Do | Local Storytellers
Description
If you want a local to show you around using a mix of humour, stories of Belgium & its history and genuine tips & tricks to get to know Brussels quickly: look no further. Together we have many years of experience in doing exactly that. The city has a rich history and transformed into the capital of Belgium and of Europe. Brussels is hard to describe as it's not just a city. It's more like a concept (like Belgium itself). There's an enormous amount of things to consider: it's the birthplace of world-famous comics, there are 80 museums, politicians from 27 countries, 3 official languages and even more unofficial ones, it was at the heart of both WWI and WWII and people from 184 different nationalities are living in it. And of course, we'll make sure that afterwards you know about beer, chocolate, fries and waffles. Join us and we'll introduce you to everything Brussels has to offer!

What an exceptional tour we just had with Adelin today. His warmth, humour and knowledge of the area was fantastic. We are already sampling some of his recommended eateries - perfect balance of history, arts food and culture. We were hooked throughout - thank you Adelin
TOM was our guide with whom we enjoyed a 2 1/2 hour guided tour around the sites and sounds of Brussels showing a deep knowledge of the historical, political and the essential " his grandfather' information. He was a pleasure to be with and tailored his talk to the enquiries of the group. He interacted eell with the group and was mindful of the high temperature at the time. Recommended.
This walking tour was excellent. We often book a tour our first day in a city, and Tom was exceptional. Highly recommend if you want an intro to Brussels and like history. This was entertaining and informative.
The walking tour enlightened me to Brussels! Tom, our tour guide was knowledgeable and was able to answer our additional questions. He was able to provide us with additional stops and offered recommended restaurants, etc. during our stay in Brussels. I would highly recommend this walking guided tour. I would do it again.
Tom as a city guide was super funny, especially his stories about his grandfather
Tom was good humored and very knowledgeable. He kept the group moving and on time. Definitely worth experiencing if time permits.
The tour itself was great. Our original time slot did not have enough people so we were passed to a group that started 15 mins later. The original guide stayed with us and pointed introduced us to the one who eventually led the tour. The guide was very knowledgeable. I’ve done a Brussels tour before and he added much more info than a previous one I took.
Tom was a lovely guide and despite the heavens opening remained engaging throughout and even had spare brollies for people a wonderful tour enjoyed by all
Quentin, our guide, provided me with a light-hearted introduction to Brussels, both the city and its people. At the same time, his presentation was factual and thought-provoking, yet very respectful when describing its history. I found this tour to be very, very good.
Adlin was an excellent guide, so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic about his city. Definitely recommend this tour
