Chocolate- mania!
Wonderful walking tour featuring a visit to some of the original stores of the “chocolate maison” with delicious tastings and interesting stories in a very small group. Our guide Zoe was the best: Energetic, enthusiastic about sharing this experience with us. Highly recommended!

Harry was excellent and knowledgeable .We had a wonderful time learning about chocolate and the art of making praline chocolates. It is exactly what we expected- sampled chocolate, melted chocolate, made ganache, and made pralines, chocolate discs, and made and drank hot chocolate too. We took home 24 pralines, 9 chocolate discs, and the leftover chocolate from our experience. It is well worth the price and experience. Do not wait and book the experience. A fun thing to do while in Brussels.

This tour was amazing.The guide Johan was very passionate .His knowledge about Belgium and the war was incredible. learnt so much on this tour. He even stopped at significant sites related to Australian and NZ soldiers when he found out a lot of the passengers were from there.
The driver also did an incredible job navigating his way around very challenging roads for a bus.
A long day but definitely worth it.

Seti gave us a great overview of Brussels on this walking tour. She even loaned her umbrella to others on the tour when it started to rain. My only complaint was that the app sent us to the tour ending spot instead of the tour starting location when I asked it to map it for me.

Guide was very proficient in spanish and he was always given alm info in several languages very orderly. Good organisation and meeting points were always very clear. Nice and clean bus . Cant complain. Just maybe I will start the tour 30 minutes earlier to have more time in delft.

Great tour guide (Diego) - friendly, informative, and courteous. Showed us really good sites, had awesome recommendations and I'm happy I was able to see 2 cities in one day - great if you're short on time in Belgium and want to see the highlights - highly recommend.

It was a nice experience; the lunch and beer selection was incredible. I wish we visited a few more chocolate shops and saw some flower gardens like what the advert shows. The tour guide was very into the three "pi&^ing" statues in Brussels which was funny.

Brussels in a Nutshell
A first class, five star tour of Brussels in-a-nutshell.
Matteo Piovacari's three hour walking tour was nicely paced, and oh so intersting...Plenty of history and cultural tidbits.
This was our first visit to Brussels, with only a day to spare, and the tour was an excellent introduction to this fascinating city. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Martin was an excellent guide ! He is very knowledgeable of WW2 and especially the Battle of the Buldge. Taught the group through stories and answered all of our questions. Definitely a great tour. Would like to go back and stay a couple of days in Bastogne.

Brussels First Day Must Do
Tom was incredibly welcoming, funny, and very knowledgeable. His enthusiasm for history made the tour both informative and enjoyable. He also shared great tips and recommendations on places to visit and where to eat, which was really helpful. I would definitely recommend doing this tour on your first day, its a perfect introduction to the city.

A very good tour of Ghent
A very good bus trip and guided tour of Ghent. The bus was comfortable and the 2 hour guided portion of the trip in English was informative and well handled. The trip left plenty of time for us to explore the city on our own. We would highly recommend this full day tour rather than booking both Bruges and Ghent on the same day.

European Wanderers
Very insightful bike tour. We visited the major sights in the City and got a good idea of what we wanted to explore in more detail. Our guide Thomas was very knowledgable and accommodating. Some parts of the tour were up hill and along side traffic in the city so be prepared. Overall we had a great time and would highly recommend for those who enjoy bike tours.
