Overview of Brussels history and current events.

Published on Apr, 2025

We appreciated Andrea altering our trip for us when our plane arrived a day and several hours late. He showed us all the most liked places!

Wonderful tour and guide!

Published on Dec, 2024

Senna was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly on our tour of Bruges. We’d happily book with him again. His knowledge of the city and ability to story-tell is truly unmatched. Our daughters had a wonderful time and learned about the history of Bruges. Senna also had great suggestions on bars and chocolate shops for Brussels! Make sure you ask!

What a wonderful route! Bruges amazed us with its originality and its history.

Published on Nov, 2024

Our Guide, Andrea! Absolutely amazing person! With deep knowledge of the subject and history in general! Andrea has a keen understanding of politics and a brilliant command of the history of Belgium and the whole of Europe.

Great time. Money well spent.

Published on Aug, 2024

Our family of five had a wonderful time with Andrea. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared some very fastening history that greatly enriched our trip. He was an excellent guide and I highly recommend taking his tour.

We ❤️ Sebastian!

Published on Jul, 2024

We loved our tour with Sebastian! He was very accommodating and really honed in on the sites were interested in seeing. He has a vast knowledge of both Brussels and Bruges as well as the surrounding regions. Sebastian was a joy to hang out with and we felt like we could have talked for hours.
