About this experience
The city of beer and chocolate, art in all its manifestations, and diverse architecture. A place where cultures blend and new European institutions are created. Our tour will be highly efficient: you will do, see, taste everything, and, most importantly, do it at your own comfortable pace. You will have at your disposal my extensive knowledge, years of experience, and a comfortable Mercedes V-Class minivan.
What to expect
Smart introduction to the city
Whether you seek gastronomic delights or dream of immersing yourself in artistic or designer aesthetics - Brussels caters to all material and intellectual desires. However, to organize your time wisely and go to truly worthwhile places, self-preparation is not enough.
Having lived in Belgium for almost 20 years, I study the history of this country, observe current events, analyze them, and am ready to share my conclusions about the logic of what is happening with you. But most importantly, of course, I will show you the city. I have explored all the landmarks and environs of Brussels and, frankly, know more about them than the vast majority of locals and tour guides. Moreover, I can narrate about history, traditions, and culture in an interesting way and I love doing it.
I know where, when, and how to start tasting the world's best Belgian beer; which chocolate to choose as a gift for colleagues and which to bring for your loved ones; in which cafe to try authentic Belgian delicacies; where to go for art connoisseurs and admire buildings for architecture enthusiasts.
20 landmarks in 4 hours
We will look at them from the top of the hill in the city center and from the windows of the minivan, wander through old narrow streets somewhere. Quietly we will approach interesting places. And all this with a detailed story about the history of the landmarks and the facts associated with them.
After such a tour, you will not be just scrolling hastily taken photos in your phone, not understanding what prompted you to take them. You will have excellent shots, and you will know what truly makes the places we visited remarkable. And most importantly - you will have wonderful warm memories of your stay in Brussels.
Our program includes:
- Grand-Place square surrounded by a magnificent architectural ensemble;
- Atomium - a gigantic structure uniting steel spheres and tubes;
- Saint-Jerome - the best exhibition center in the city and a significant historical site;
- as well as the Palace of Justice, Royal Palace, Bush Lane, Neo-Gothic Notre-Dame-de-Laken Church, Gothic Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, the oldest temple in Brussels, the unofficial symbol of the capital, the "revolutionary" theater, and much more.
