A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Think of this personalized experience with one of our hosts, like spending the day with a friend. You’ll join one of our local Brussels hosts and immerse yourself in the city to discover what it’s all about.
Maybe you’ll sip Belgian brews, indulge in pralines and truffles, see cheeky statues (Mannekin Pis, we mean you), and discover the iconic sights and hidden gems that only a local could show you.
Let your host know what you feel you’ll enjoy, and they’ll try to make it happen!
Why not pop into the eclectic shops or galleries or maybe even your host's favorite cafe for a Belgian treat - did somebody say waffles?
No matter your preference, budget, or dietary requirements, there's something for you to enjoy in Brussels, and your host can’t wait to share it with you.

Simply wonderful. Sean gave my wife and I a fantastic, detailed, and highly interesting four hour tour. The personalized itinerary allowed us to experience Brussels from a unique vantage point and Sean never failed to answer our (many) questions. At the end of the tour, Sean gave us some great restaurant and book recommendations. Would 100% recommend and you will not be disappointed if you are lucky enough to get Sean as your guide!

Paola gave us a 4-hour tour around the central plazas, churches, parks, and monuments of the city. She made sure everyone was confortable during the route, and even though we had a wheelchair everything went fine.
