Historical Brussels walking Tour - Sebastian was very articulate explaining all the symbolism above the Guild houses and gave an elaborate summary of Belgium’s colorful history. It was a most enjoyable 4 hour tour and Sebastian made it happen. Thanks

Great walking tour - Asefah was full of knowledge and energy. Saw everything in the heart of Brussels (walked 15,000 steps!). Definitely take a break in the middle which allowed an interesting discussion of our backgrounds.

Fantastic tour with Asefeh - We took a private tour with Asefeh in Brussels and it was the highlight of our time there. We scheduled the tour for the first full day that we were in town and I am so glad that we did because she gave us a good idea of the layout of the city and recommended several bars and restaurants to check out over the next few days. She shared interesting history of the area and buildings that we would not have learned otherwise and kept us moving at a great pace so that we were able to see a lot over the three hours. Asefeh perfectly mixed sharing stories and history of Brussels while also giving us time to chat ourselves. She also took great pictures of us which we truly appreciate. I would absolutely recommend taking a private tour!

Interesting tour - We had a very good tour around Brussels. Covered a lot of history and politics. Would've like to hear a few more of the good things about Brussels even though there are a lot of political issues and long-standing divisions between the north area and the south area.
