How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
We’re sure you’ve got a Brussels bucket list to tick off during your visit, so why not get one of our Brussels hosts to help you? You’ll spend 8 hours navigating some of the city’s top attractions and discover a few hidden gems that only a local would know about along the way too.
A city is not merely a place but a feeling, so soak it all in as you explore the historic streets, Surrealist art, colorful murals, and pavement brasseries.
Venture into the Old Town’s inner squares for a lager, waffle, or frites - or probably all three - or stop by a traditional brasserie or hole-in-the-wall restaurant for a long, lazy lunch. Lose yourself in the city as you navigate small neighborhoods, with your host to tell you all about them.
With so much to see in Brussels, a day isn’t nearly enough! After exploring shops, galleries, and other places that might suit your vibe, get the scoop from your host about what else you could enjoy in the Belgian capital.

Sean was the best guide! It was like touring a city with your friend. So incredibly knowledgeable and NOT boring one minute. We had so much fun with Sean on our first day in Brussels. You won’t regret booking this private tour as they personalize it to your likings and interests.

Our private tour of Brussels was extremely well organized and thoughtful. Even though we were dealing with jetlag, Sean kept our attention focused on the impressive architecture and historic information for the duration of the tour. We were provided with a better understanding of the City, the people and the culture which made us very comfortable to navigate Brussels on our own for the remainder of our visit. Sean provided many helpful tips on restaurants and sites to visit in Brussels and for our next stops in Antwerp and Luxembourg. Highly recommend this tour!

Senna was excellent! He listened to what we were interested in….food and seeing the most interesting parts of downtown Brussels. Knowing that he brought a sample of his Mom’s Liège waffles for us to try. Delicious. Although our flight was delayed 1 hour it was the 2.5 hour wait to clear customs that made us late for our original 10am staring time. He was happy to accommodate a later time and we ended up with the full tour despite our tardiness. Wonderful and would highly recommend.
