So much fun! Great tasting tour plus a little history. It was not touristy but more local and authentic spots. We had a blast and really enjoyed the food!
So many great flavors

We spent a lovely two hours with Sophie. We learned a lot about the city and, best of all, the amazing food it has to offer. We had Henry, our 7-year-old, with us throughout the tour, and she was incredibly helpful and very patient the entire time. Highly recommended. Even the next day I couldn't decide what my favorite was—the fries, the beer (yes, beer), the waffles, the snails, or the sweets. Everything was so good.
Great fun, Christophe was...

I couldn’t have asked for a better person to show me the real heart of Brussels. Lina was such a joy from the start and we got going right away. She pointed out some great spots to eat, shared bits of history, and kindly gave me tips for the rest of my trip. It’s easy to see why she’s traveled so much, she just connects with people effortlessly in any setting. Thanks again, Lina.
