What 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.

    Our experience with Michael was fantastic! We were back in Brussels for the second time and wanted to explore some new places that were off the beaten path. We decided to book a tour with Michael and it turned out to be a great decision! The best part was that we got to fill out a questionnaire and request that our guide showed us the best non-touristy spots in the city. Michael took us to some cool neighborhoods like Sablon and Les Marolles that had a boho and laid-back vibe. We even got to enjoy some local shopping and mingled with locals on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Michael was an excellent guide, and he surprised us with a visit to his favorite chocolate shop, which had the most amazing chocolate that was
