Splendid walk through historic Brussels - Our guide (who I am sorry to say I couldn't pronounce his name which has resulted in not remembering his name) was very informative and helpful. Explanations were clear that even my non-English speaking mother could understand. The waffles and chocolate tasting were great and resulted in me providing patronage to the places visited.

Don’t miss this one! Great experience for a great price! - This was an amazing experience! It was the perfect combination of enjoying waffles and chocolates paired with fun history! You get plenty of opportunities to experience the best sites, take pictures, learn a little bit of fun history, and make purchases along the way! Totally recommend Sancar! His experience was evident with the way he provided the perfect balance during the experience; especially for travelers who aren’t too familiar with Brussels.

Great Overview of Brussels - Really good overview of Brussels history, architecture, and culture. Our family of 4 (kids 20, 16) enjoyed the 2.5 hours. We were only in Brussels 1.5 days, so this was a great way to get a flavor of the city. Guide was wonderful, but due to a public celebration going on in the square (not her fault!), we would have benefited from a microphone or mild amplification you see on some walking tours. Waffle and chocolate tastings were great! High quality and good portions.
