"Eric’s chocolate tasting was the first item on the agenda in our first day in Brussels, and it was absolutely perfect. He has incredible knowledge that encompasses both the history of Brussels and the history of the fantastic chocolates we were eating. Our family got to know the city through a delicious means, and Eric was charming, accommodating, and flexible. He was great with our two kids while still keeping the material high-level, and was an excellent guide!"

A glorious walking tour of Brussels
"We were first time travelers to Brussels and just came for the day on the Eurostar from Paris. Our group of six wanted a guided tour of historic Brussels and Thiago was everything we expected and more. He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. He pointed out restaurants, chocolate shops, and have a great knowledge of Belgium beers. He paced the tour well and told amazing stories. We would book a tour with Thiago again! "
"We had an amazing tour of Brussels with Eric. He is super knowledgeable and a true history buff! He’s also a funny guy with a great personality. The best thing about a tour like this is the flexibility to see the things that are of the most interest. Eric did not disappoint, and we loved his passion for his city and country! Don’t hesitate to book with him! "
"We had a lovely walk around Brussels with Christophe.
He clearly knows a lot about the city and is proud to live there. He showed us the main tourist sites plus a few places we would probably not have found ourselves. He was happy to adjust the tour if we wished and left us at a place near to our hotel with plenty of restaurants to choose from."

Good for experts and novices alike
"Elodie was terrific, both knowledgeable and charming. She offered sound advice on which beers to choose, so we had three very different beers, including an unusual lambic. The pubs we visited were interesting and funky, but the snacks were just snacks. "
"We had a great time. Esteph was fun and very informetative. Highly recommended 😎"

Excellent Guide for Brussels
"Shanthuru is an excellent guide! I took the tour 5 months pregnant and he was considerate of me when I needed to stop and buy water and even asked if he was walking too fast which was not necessary but very much appreciated! He is very knowledgeable of all things Brussels and gave us great recommendations for sweet and savory snacks, food and dinner. I highly recommend Shanthuru, he is friendly and has a great sense of humor."
