A beautiful day
Mariana was a perfect compliment to our time in Brussels. We would highly recommend her if you would like to spend time with someone who loves the city, is knowledgeable about local architecture, history and social culture. We were three generations walking together around Brussels and she naturally connected with all of us. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon.

Excellent overview of Brussels' highlights
Christophe was an engaging and knowledgeable guide for all the highlights and a few hidden gems around Brussels city center. A lot of walking on a chilly day, a lot of information, and a great overview for further explorations over several days.

Best Food Suggestions/Tourist Highlights
Tiago was high energy and engaging as he pointed our best places to find all the “must eat” food highlights. He led us to the best fries (no wait). Round church, main square and boy peeing were some of our favorite experiences enhanced by Tiago’s story telling. He topped of the tour with some special treats! We were very happy with our tour.
