Both great and bad experience - I gave it 5 because the guide was fascinating and knew his subject very well. I could have given Tripadvisor a 1 because this service provider does not have a guide in French. After booking, I received a message by snap during the night from the service provider telling me that the tour was in Spanish. Not having had the information we introduced ourselves and luckily there was only a Spaniard who spoke English and who after discussion agreed that the tour would be done in English. It was more difficult for the guide and for us, especially my wife, but overall we pretty much understood each other. So French travelers who only speak French, be very careful because this service provider only does school groups in French and private tours but it is not at all the same price

Visit to the Comic Strip Museum in Brussels - Interesting visit to the museum, with numerous explanatory boards on the designers. Shop with a huge choice of comics and other goodies. We walked there from the center.
