Sebastian was an excellent host and guide. We learned a great deal about Brussels and what it is like for a young adult to live in this incredibly diverse city. My husband was not feeling well, so Sebastian adjusted his tour to our needs and that was especially appreciated.

Sebastian was an excellent tour guide! He showed us the best spots in Brussels and gave fantastic recommendations for places to eat, as well as where to find unique beers and chocolate. We learned so much during the tour. He was also incredibly patient with our 5- and 8-year-old kids, who asked tons of questions. Thanks, Sebastian, for a wonderful experience!

Andrea was very knowledgeable and gave us a detailed overview of the history of Belgium and Brussels. We visited all of the major sites and stopped for a quick lunch near the EU parliament. The tour focused heavily on EU politics which might not be for everyone.

We were on a cruise ship stopping in Bruges and decided to tour Brussels for the day. Our tour guide Michael met us when we got off the train, and the tour was tailored to our interests. We went to the Atonium, and then all around central Brussels, stopping for Belguim waffles and lunch. Michael was very knowledgeable and helpful getting us around within our time constraints!
