The Urban Jungle Tour is a Must Do!! Christophe is a wonderful guide & we learned SOOO much history about Brussels which is so relevant to the city that exists today. He gave us a full sweep of Molenbeek, showing us old buildings and new architecture projects in the area that are STUNNING! He's so knowledgeable & very engaging & entertaining. Give yourself the opportunity to step outside of the usual tourist areas & learn more about the Beautiful city of Brussels! You will not be disappointed!! Wonderful Informative & Entertaining Tour

Christophe gave us great insights to his hometown Molenbeek, explaining the history of this community to us and how it has been transformed to that what it has become today. Although it wasn’t planned as a photo walk, there was enough time to took some pics from this other, less glamorous but not less interesting side of the metropolitan area of Brussels. We enjoyed this walk with Christophe very much (actually in German). Apart from providing a deep knowledge about the city he is very kind, open minded and communicative. We are looking forward to have another date with him while our next stay in this surprisingly exiting city of Brussels. Highly recommended!Molenbeek - great walk with Christophe

We were a group of 10 Wales football fans who were visiting Brussels to watch Wales play Belgium and we were keen to learn more about the city. At very short notice Christophe took us on a very interesting walking tour around the main sights - and lots of “off the beaten track” sights and viewpoints that we would never have found without his local knowledge. His English was excellent and we learnt so much about the history and architecture of this beautiful place. Christophe was flexible and accommodated all our requests in a friendly way. We would highly recommend him and the city tour!! A great tour

We had a lovely walk around Brussels with Christophe. He clearly knows a lot about the city and is proud to live there. He showed us the main tourist sites plus a few places we would probably not have found ourselves. He was happy to adjust the tour if we wished and left us at a place near to our hotel with plenty of restaurants to choose from.Great tour

We love private touring with locals in order to get an immediate feel for a new destination and to get oriented for exploring on our own. We have been fortunate to participate in many tours on our travels. Christophe fulfilled all of our expectations. A familiarity with the history and stories of a location are essential… but an ability to adapt and address the specific interests of a visitor distinguish a host from a tour guide. Christophe is a wonderful host whose enthusiasm for his home city and its stories is obvious. The tour was an extended conversation in English and French rather than a scripted recital. We would highly recommend Christophe to anyone looking for an enthusiastic and knowledgeable introduction to Brussels and Belgium. Beautiful Brussels

Had a perfect day exploring Brussels. Christophe showed us a unique view of his city that we would never have experienced on our own. His tour would be the perfect way to start a stay in Brussels or as was our case, having a limited time there. Christophe is a great guide

Christophe heeft mega veel kennis en passie voor zijn stad, en neemt je mee naar bijzondere plekjes waar niet iedereen komt. Zeker een aanrader! Absolute aanrader

Rob🇺🇸 United States

Christophe was absolutely fabulous! He gave us a detailed tour that felt like exploring Brussels with a long-time friend rather than a formal guide. His warm, personable approach and infectious enthusiasm for the city made our experience truly special. We particularly loved when he showed us his own neighborhood, adding personal stories that brought the area to life. An unexpected highlight was stopping at a local pub to sample Belgian beers - a thoughtful surprise that wasn't part of the official tour. Christophe's knowledge is impressive, but it's his genuine love for Brussels and his ability to relate to visitors that sets him apart. His upbeat energy is contagious, making our time in Brussels all the more enjoyable. If you want to see the real Brussels through the eyes of someone who clearly adores this city, Christophe is your perfect guide!Brussels through a local's passionate eyes

We had a fantastic afternoon with Christophe! He met us right on time and we enjoyed three local places with a great variety of beer to try. Christophe is extremely knowledgeable and can adjust based on group interests. We were excited to try several Belgian varieties that we hadn’t known and we learned a ton. Christophe is a wonderful person and makes the time fly! Definitely book with him if able!Perfect Beer Extravaganza

We had a great tour of Brussels with Christopher. He was fun, knowledgeable and super helpful. We had a very warm spring day and the crowds were challenging, but Christophe managed to navigate our tour so we still saw all we wanted in Brussels and learned a lot. Highly recommend him!Fun tour of Brussels

Our family of four just got back from a tour of Brussels with Christophe. This was a day excursion from Paris for our family. We have two kids 10 and 8. We wanted to see the main highlights of Brussels. Christophe did a great job showing us around and keeping our kids engaged and enjoying the tour. We would highly recommend a tour with Christophe!!!Brussels with Christophe

Es war eine super schöne und unglaublich interessante Tour. Christophe ist sehr sympathisch. Vielen Dank und jederzeit gerne wieder!!! Alsolut perfekt!

Christophe gaf ons een tour door Brussel die we niet snel zullen vergeten. Heel gemakkelijk maakte hij contact met iedereen en zorgde voor interessante insteekjes in de algemene route die we vooraf hadden afgesproken. Zo had iedereen de ervaring die het zo speciaal maakte en waardoor we he tlang nadien nog over onze eigen experience hadden. Zeer veel dank Christophe voor de mooie ervaring en de gezellige ochtend.A new Friend!

Mijn mama en ik deden onlangs een stadswandeling met Christophe en zijne maat Roel en we waren onder de indruk van de gidsen! Hun aangename en vriendelijke manier van vertellen maakte de wandeling echt bijzonder. Ze deelden talloze interessante verhalen en leuke weetjes over de stad, vaak met grappige kwinkslagen die ons aan het lachen maakten. Bovendien was een groot deel van de wandeling in het Brussels, wat voor een authentieke en unieke ervaring zorgde. Kortom, een absolute aanrader voor iedereen die Brussel op een andere manier wil ontdekken!

Wir hatten das große Vergnügen, eine 3-stündige Tour durch Brüssel mit Christophe zu erleben, und es war einfach fantastisch! Christophe ist ein äußerst sympathischer und freundlicher Guide, der uns mit viel Leidenschaft und Fachwissen die Stadt nähergebracht hat. Er hat uns nicht nur die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten gezeigt, sondern auch einige versteckte Ecken, die wir alleine sicher nie gefunden hätten. Wir waren begeistert von Christophes umfassendem Wissen – keine unserer Fragen blieb unbeantwortet, und seine Erklärungen waren immer spannend und leicht verständlich. Die Tour hat super viel Spaß gemacht, und wir haben Brüssel von einer neuen Seite kennengelernt. Wer einen Guide sucht, der professionell, herzlich und kenntnisreich ist, sollte unbedingt eine Tour mit Christophe buchen. Absolute Empfehlung!Perfekte Tour durch Brüssel

We had a 6 hour layover in Brussels. It was very easy taking the train from the airport 2 stops to Brussels Central Station where we met Christophe. He took us around the city for 3 hours giving us an overview of the history of the city, the neighborhoods of past and present, the thriving chocolate & food scenes, and entertainment scenes, and street art.Make tje most of a layover

We went by train from Amsterdam to Paris and decided to stop in Brussels for a few hours as we had never been before. Christophe meet us at the train station and offered to show us how to store our luggage, but we had figured it out ourselves. We then went on an amazing walking tour with Christophe seeing a good amount of old sites, churches, plazas, shopping areas and more! Christophe was very knowledgeable about the history of Brussels. He then dropped us back at the train station. Highly recommend!Excellent and fun tour with Christophe!

Spent a very nice morning with Christophe, learnt so much about Brussels, Belgium & the EU. Saw all the sights as well as some off the tourist track like the secluded area where the River Seine still runs. Managed to also have time at the end to sample some choice Belgian beers. Great tour with Christophe

Christophe was a wonderful guide for our family: friendly and very flexible in planning and reacting to different needs and interests. He had answers to all the different questions of all our group members (age 15-87) and showed us a lot more than just the classical highlights.
