3.Brussels Walking and Tasting Tour (Beers,Chocolates&Fries/Waffle)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 929 reviews · 2 to 3 hours (approx.) · from $84

Walk central Brussels with guides such as Tiago, Tim, Julie, or Walid, stopping at Grand-Place, Manneken Pis, and the Royal Gallery for chocolate. Expect Belgian frites or a waffle, pralines, and a seated tasting of four local beers. The tour lasts about 2 to 3 hours and ends near Rue du Lombard.

“A very informative tour in addition to the food highlights. Walid is an excellent and energetic guide. You get 8 pieces of deluxe pralines, fries or waffle, and 4 Belgian beers to try. The pacing was quite good. If there was a way logistically to get a half waffle and half fries order, that’d be even better. If participating as a couple, I’d recommend getting one of each to share.”

I texted the number on our tour info and received an immediate response inviting us to still come that day. Walid was a really informative guide. We only had a short time in Brussels, so it was a great way to learn about the history, the culture, and Belgian food and beer. The chocolates were amazing! I would highly recommend this tour with Walid.”
