5.00Loved the waffles and learning about their history from Sajah, plus complimentary coffee to start with, followed by a great walking tour around town with Sarah. Visited several interesting sites and tried set trays from multiple spots. Moved so fast I had to go back later to purchase items to take home!
Great walking tour!

5.00Loved this experience. Both Sanchez and Lou ( I hope I’m spelling the names correctly ), were very friendly , honest and knowledgeable. Learnt lot of insight into historical places in Brussels and hot spots for food etc. This experience I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to cover main historical sites in a fun way while tasting some delicious Belgian sweets.
Great tour, but we were unable to finish

4.00This is a good tour. I echo all the other reviews that praise the quality and pacing of this tour, with one exception. At the end the tour, when the climb up the hill begins, the pacing speeds up quite a bit for those with mobility issues. Then comes the very long set of stairs. If I had to guess, the stairs might be the equivalent of walking up three stories. Regardless, there was no way we where going to be able to make it. By the time we got to that point, we were so far behind the group, we couldn't tell anyone we were dropping out. As we sat and waited, the guide did show up at the top of the stairs and at that point we were able to wave her on. All that said, I would still recommend the tour, but with the understanding that, for some, it might not be possible to finish. Had we known we should just stop at the beginning of the hill climb, we would have still enjoyed the tour a great deal, in fact, the end would have been much, much more pleasant and far less frustrating.
