Well worth it! - We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Dan. Definitely learned things we wouldn’t have gathered on our own just wandering around, and got good ideas for what to go back to or explore more. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience - The tour I took part in was excellent. Our French guide Pablo, spoke impeccable English and was extremely polite, competent, and professional. The tour was really interesting without it being too heavy. In 2 hours I learnt a lot about Brussels' history, its monuments and legends. I would recommend this tour to people of all ages looking for a light yet well prepared and exhaustive tour of this amazing city. Thank you very much for this experience!

The great trip. - Me and my friends went for a day to Brussels but we really didn't prepare much. And then we found this amazing guide. He took as around the city and told us all the history, niche information, recommendations and jokes. It was an amazing experience, definitely recommend.

Such a great tour - We had Sebastian for the free walking tour around Brussels, he was amazing. His knowledge of the country and city was very extensive and I learnt so much from this tour that I didn't know before. He kept us very engaged with his attention to detail and humorous personality. I would highly recommend this tour.

Very disappointed. - Very disappointed. Dan the guide refused us entry to this tour as he was our guide the day before for “The Dark Side of Brussels” walking tour and we did not tip him, as tips are not compulsory. He was making out tips should be paid even though it does not need to be and trip advisor explicitly says this. He told us that the company he works for charges him €3 per person that he takes on the tour and for that reason, we must tip. This is not noted on trip advisor. He was rude, it was not a nice experience and in the end he refused us entry to the tour and we had no choice but to walk away despite the fact that we had paid the reservation fee, it was not nice at all.
