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!

It was a great and memorable experience for both my wife and myself. It was our first trip to the city and Olatunde made it memorable. Apart from being a very informative and enthusiastic host he is a fantastic human being. Always smiling and cheerful. Makes you feel very comfortable and feels as if you are being truly escorted by a friend. Thanks a lot Olatunde.... Warm regards- Atul and Anupama
