It was a lovely afternoon. Don't forget to walk to the Antwerp train station and visit the Diamond Museum. They are amazing! Wear comfortable walking shoes as there is a lot of walking. Thank you Beren!”

Review of Brussels’ 2.5-hour history walk with Grand Place, Manneken Pis, Belgian waffles, Mary chocolates, and practical city tips.

“Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area and provided a good amount of history and information without going overboard. It was an excellent introduction to the city that was super useful later in trying to navigate. There was some walking but not too much. Guide left plenty of time for questions and was clearly passionate about sharing his city with us. I would definitely recommend.”

Taste Bruges through beer, chocolate, fries, waffles and history on a small-group walking tour with local guides.

“"T," as she is called, was an amazing guide! She has a tremendous knowledge of local and regional history, culture, and language. She is friendly, intelligent, interesting, and worldly, having lived all over the world. She shared her favorite places in Bruges with us for "Belgian" fries, hand-crafted artisan chocolate, the best waffle I have ever eaten, and mulled wine and beer at the Christmas Market. She spent Christmas Day with us, and we are so grateful to her for giving us such a memorable and special day.”
