Auur_G, Dec 2018

It was a great idea to book Milton as our host. He was both considered and very nice. He guided us to the Christmans market, Grand Plaz, Cathedral, Royal Palace and lots more. He is very familiar and up to date in the history of the city. We really enjoyed his company.

Excellent tour! Our guide was very...

ChristineE_O, Mar 2018

Excellent tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. He was also very accommodating as I had broken a bone in my foot right before our trip and was wearing a boot. Brussels was spectacular this time of year and this was the perfect way to see it!

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled your guide made the tour both enjoyable and accommodating despite your injury. Brussels must have been magical this time of year—what a perfect way to experience it!
