I can’t think of a better person to show you around town and explain what you are seeing. He really listens when you explain what you want to see and adjusts itinerary accordingly. Very attentive to my friend’s minor mobility issues as well. Sean wanted us to love Belgium and by the end of the tour we did. Thanks Sean for a wonderful evening.

I enjoyed our walk through Grand Plaz, Christmas market, sitting down with a cup of hot chocelate. Milton then guided us to the Royal Palace and the Chathedral. He is thougtful and knows his way in Brussels.

Francis was very knowledgeable and took all of my preferences into account. The tour was the perfect balance of having structure while allowing for flexibility to adjust on the fly. Was able to see parts of the city that only a local would know about which was very unique. Looking forward to visiting Brussels again in the future!
