We had an amazing tour of Brussels with Eric. He is super knowledgeable and a true history buff! He’s also a funny guy with a great personality. The best thing about a tour like this is the flexibility to see the things that are of the most interest. Eric did not disappoint, and we loved his passion for his city and country! Don’t hesitate to book with him! Terrific Tour!

Eric was a truly exceptional guide who transformed our beer tour into one of the highlights of our Brussels trip. His upbeat energy, deep knowledge, and genuine passion for Belgian beer culture made for an unforgettable experience. What stood out most was Eric’s authentic love for his city and country - he’s a remarkable ambassador for Brussels who brings the local beer traditions to life through engaging stories and historical context. His friendly, empathetic approach made us feel immediately welcome and comfortable. He guided us to local bars with outstanding atmosphere and history that we otherwise would not have found on our own. At each stop, Eric shared his extensive knowledge of the local beers, explaining the distinct styles and exceptional quality that make Belgian beer world-renowned. His explanations were informative without being overwhelming, perfect for enhancing our appreciation of each tasting. The entire experience was elevated by Eric’s talent as a guide and his experience in creating a personalized journey through Brussels’ beer culture. He never rushed us and took time to answer all our questions, creating a relaxed yet enriching atmosphere throughout the tour. If you’re visiting Brussels and want to understand why beer holds such an important place in Belgian culture, Eric’s tour is absolutely the way to experience it. His passion, knowledge, and warm personality make him the perfect guide to introduce you to the authentic beer traditions of this remarkable city.Brewing Memories with Brussels’ Best Guide

Eric was fabulous. He managed the tour in a way that my mother (who doesn't walk well) was able to manage and enjoy the history of the main square and chocolate shops along the way. He was knowledgable, friendly, and gave us tips about places to go to drink and eat the best waffles. I highly recommend!A lovely chocolate and history toup

My partner and I recently had the pleasure of taking a walking tour of Brussels with a local guide named Eric, and it was truly a highlight of our trip. From the moment we met him, Eric's enthusiasm for his city was infectious. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights into the history and culture of Brussels at every turn. What made the tour even more enjoyable was Eric's wonderful sense of humour, which kept us engaged throughout the three hours we spent with him. Eric took us to a variety of very interesting sights, each one brought to life by his passion for architecture, which clearly shone through in his commentary. He had a knack for pointing out details we might have otherwise missed, making the city feel truly vibrant and layered. A particular treat was his recommendation of a local takeaway spot for some authentic Belgian Frenched (no, not 'French') fries - a delicious end to a wonderful walk! Beyond Brussels itself, Eric went above and beyond by offering us some excellent advice for our upcoming visit to Bruges the following day, which we really appreciated. I would say the price was good value and we would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Eric as a guide. If you're looking for an engaging, informative, and fun way to discover Brussels, Eric is your person!Brussels Unlocked: Eric's the Key!

Our day in Flanders with Eric was a wonderful way to end our Belgium holiday. Eric made certain that we were able to visit the sites that were most meaningful to us including a stop at the American Cemetery and a drive through the countryside ridges where my great uncle John fought and was wounded. Thankfully my uncle came home, but it was so important to us to pay tribute to all of the young men that did not. Eric's expertise of the events and places that defined WWI gave us a keen appreciation for the sacrifices and bravery of the soldiers that lived it. We enjoyed lunch in a local restaurant where Eric went out of his way to help us order the best local foods including fries, Belgium stew, and of course Belgium beer! We even swapped stories about our favorite leek soup recipes. The tour far exceeded our expectations. Thank you Eric for providing us with memories of our time in Flanders that we will long remember. The most excellent day-Thank you!!
