Belgium treats
153maureenp, October 2026
What a great afternoon with Mathieu and Anthony. The guides were very personable and funny and engaged with every person in the group. We got to enjoy many many Belgium treats...beer, chocolates, waffles, and fries. We had lots more food and drink than expected and skipped dinner that night!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Delicious Tour of Brussels — Highly Recommended!
Katherine_R, October 2026
What a fantastic experience! The Brussels walking tour featuring chocolate, beer, and waffles was an absolute highlight of our visit. Everything was delicious, and the experience was made even more special by our wonderful guides, Clemens and Stephane.
They took us to unique establishments we would never have discovered on our own, sharing fascinating stories about the history, culture, and charm of this beautiful city along the way. We enjoyed every stop, from tasting incredible Belgian chocolate to sampling local beers and indulging in delicious waffles.
One of the best parts was learning the art of becoming true chocolate snobs! 🍫 We came away with a much greater appreciation for the quality, craftsmanship, and traditions behind Belgian chocolate.
Clemens and Stephane were knowledgeable, engaging, and full of enthusiasm, making the entire tour both entertaining and educational. Their passion for Brussels really shone through, and they created a wonderful atmosphere throughout the experience.
If you’re visiting Brussels and want to discover its history, hidden gems, and amazing food and drink, this tour is an absolute must! A perfect blend of culture, fun, and delicious treats. Five stars all around! 🍻🍫🧇

Wonderful day in Brussels!
Marshall_G, October 2026
We spent an absolutely fabulous day tasting numerous beers and various chocolates. Clemens (sp) was a fantastic guide.....articulate, humorous, knowledgeable and luckily, opinionated as well. We tasted many wonderful examples of chocolates and learned which to avoid as well. We are relative beer novices but by the end of the day, we truly began to appreciate the various styles of Belgian beer. So much fun and educational as well. We even got to sample some waffles and cookies as a bonus.The only downside (LOL) was the amount of money we spent returning to the various chocolate shops over the next day or two . Highly recommended! The day ended at our last stop with considerable lively conversation plus a couple of more beers among our entire group.

One of the best beer and chocolate tours!
Gordon_M, October 2026
What a fantastic day, it passed so quickly, we must have really enjoyed it. Our guide Daphne was really amazing and entertaining, she made the tour really interesting and was also professional in her approach throughout. The stops for beer were really interesting and places we would never have thought of visiting on our own. But I’m glad we did get to see them, taste the beers and get the history behind both the locations and the beer. Chocolate and waffle stops were brilliant too. Couldn’t fault the tour, one of the best we’ve been on anywhere.

A great experience to explore the city!
lorenalA7865AR, October 2026
This tour was a highlight of our vacation. We had Clemmins as our guide - he was so nice, informative, fun and just overall the best person to take us through Brussels. The chocolate selection was elite - really taught us the difference in quality and I learned a lot about beer. I’m not a big beer drinker and now I appreciate it more. I had the best time on this tour- highly recommend anyone to take this!
