Birthday walking and tasting tour - Walid was an amazing guide. Extremely knowledgeable and full of passion for the city. Walid provided a good dose of humour whilst taking us around the sights on our walking and tasting tour. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Brussels walking food tour 2025 - The guide was very knowledgeable, and inclusive of the various nationalities. Excellent history tour of Brussels and an understanding of the various food tastings. I.e to us a waffle is cream and jam, but we now know all waffle are not the same, goes for chocolate. Manneken Piste.

Awesome Brussels Tour - Very fun experience, the chocolate was delicious. You get a choice between waffles or fries. I opted for waffles (best tasting waffles I've ever had and I don't usually like waffles) and bought my own fries (get the truffle mayo). Tim was very nice

Excellent experience and beers ;) - If you're looking for interesting facts about Brussels without being overwhelmed with too many details, this visit is perfect for you: the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about Brussels, Belgium and beer! We went to different places in the city center, were taught about the history and architecture of the city as well as fun facts. Our visit was punctuated by different tastings: chocolate (from the world's champion of chocolate-making), either waffles or fries (price for them included in the visit fee + we could trump the queue, which was very enjoyable). We finished with a beer tasting (if people are not too keen on beer, they're offered alcohol-free alternatives or wine alternatives) and got to try 4 very different beer sorts while learning more about their brewing process. We would absolutely recommend you to take on this visit, it was a true highlight in our weekend-trip! Thank you so much for the great experience!

Diego was an informative... - Diego was an informative and engaging tour guide. He provided great historical information about Brussels along with explanations about how Belgian chocolate and Belgian beers are made. The tastings- chocolate, fries or waffles, and beer flights- were top notch! Our 2 teen boys really enjoyed the tour as well!

Walking tour - I recently had the pleasure of joining a walking tour in Brussels, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! Our guide, Tiago, was exceptional—his knowledge of the city was impressive, and his friendly demeanor made the tour enjoyable for everyone. As a group, we had a fantastic day exploring the charming streets and rich history of Brussels. I highly recommend this tour to anyone new to the city; it’s a wonderful way to discover its hidden gems!

A great way to start your Brussels trip - We enjoyed the live and variety of the trip. The chocolates and fries were great. The waffles were not. We appreciated the history injected into the tour of Grand Place and Mannequin Pis. Finishing with the beer tasting was great. An easy walk and worth the money.

Not recommended as a food walk - 1h sightseeing in quick English before there was anything to eat. After all, the guide had brought water and children's chocolate (in Brussels) for himself. This tour is not recommended.

Beautiful gourmet walk exclusively in English. - Beautiful informative and gourmet walk, guide - Tiago - really friendly and interesting with anecdotes and wise advice that has adapted to our tastes and food intolerances. Only downside for Francophones, visit exclusively in English. Too bad we didn't get notified before.
