Patrick’s knowledge and communication skills were excellent. He pointed out some interesting places and items which would have been missed with either a group tour or a less engaged guide. His use of language was very good and we felt comfortable with our guide and our tour.

This was an amazing place with such a great tour guide. She was so accommodating and flexible for our needs. She let us have some free time while also educating us and showing us around the town. We highly recommend the tour.

This is an excellent tour to spend a few hours to see all the prime sites in Brussels. Laurence was an amazing guide. She is from the area and teaches history. She made everything we saw come to life. Not just dates but details of the architecture and people. She was open to any stops for chocolate, waffles, or fries! We saw all the right places to understand Brussels history and where it is today with a melting pot of cultures and people. Excellent Tour!
