Perfect afternoon in Brussels
If you can only spend 3 hours in Brussels, then this is the way to do it. Elodie is very knowledgeable and has some little historical secret secrets under her sleeve. I will not share so you have to book her. :-). My son and I had a perfect afternoon with Elodie tasting delicious morsels Brussels have to offer.

Wonderful day!
Elodie was a fantastic guide through Brussels. We took a day trip from Paris and this was a perfect way to see the city in a short time. We really enjoyed the food, the sights, and learning about the city. We highly recommend booking this trip with her!
