Next, stroll to the sophisticated sprawl of Grand Place to admire the grand Town Hall and architecturally diverse buildings that surround the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Venture to some of the city’s most popular foodie haunts to tantalize your taste buds with local specialties like steamed mussels served with fresh herbs and perfectly crisp frites served in paper cups with lashings of creamy mayonnaise.

Sink your teeth into a sweet specialty like a Belgian waffle smothered in whipped cream and fresh strawberries and then cleanse your palate with an effervescent gulp of fine Belgian beer. Absorb the ambience of one of the city’s oldest taverns and listen as your guide unravels some beer legends.

Patrick, our tour guide, gave us great insight to the tastes and sights of Brugge. He and his wife even prepared a couple of the tastings themselves! Had the best hot chocolate ever as agreed by all 4 of us. Would highly recommend Patrick and this tour to anyone.

Great food and beer with an entertaining guide

Marc was a good guide and the food on the tour was excellent. There are several stops, most of them seated (unusual from our experience), and the food and beer were of very good quality and authentic to Belgium. We spent time in the Grand Place and surrounding streets and Marc provided a bit of history and learnings along with some humor and anecdotes.

Would not recommend this tour, it's over priced for what you get. The description states beer tasting with the food. We got one beer - that's not a tasting. We expected (and so did the rest of the tour group) to go to different restaurants for the different food experiences when it was just at the tour office. Our tour guide told us about a place that makes the best waffles but then proceeds to take us to a different place for waffles - this honestly made no sense. The description also states chocolate tasting at the most exclusive shops (plural) we went to one and tasted one chocolate. Our tour guide also just kept walking far ahead of us not really paying attention to the group and just kept telling us not to lose her, which eventually some people did lose her and she just carried on walking and they had to find their own way back to the group. The food was not great, we had better Belgian food at different restaurants in Brussels All in all really disappointing.

Waw! What a review... So that means that all those ohter people who gave 5 stars were liying? I wonder if you have been on the tour? What tour office? We went to two restaurants. Do you want the VAT number to verify? And what about the guide? Maybe she was annoyed with the fact that you were 15 minutes late and holding up the whole group

This was such a fun experience! Marc was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The stops for chocolate, beer, waffle, and macarons were all delicious, as was the lunch Sabrina (who is an absolute gem!) cooked for us in their restaurant. You get a discount at the chocolate shops if you buy more to take home too, which was great. Highly recommend!

Tour guide was great but nothing like the description. Was hoping for a tasting of brussles. Not just a heavy lunch in their restaurant..

Hello Lynnse, What do you mean with heavy lunch? Tasting of brussles? I mean you had mussels, vol au vent with stoemp and thuna with peaches, and for dessert a Brussels Waffle. These are Brussels or belgian food dishes. And you had beer and chocolate. So what was the problem?

Marc was a great tour guide. Casual and very informative. Very patient with answering all the questions. Got a good background of Belgium. Read the previous reviews so knew not to eat before the tour! Wise advice. We went to one of the oldest chocolate shops for a taste of chocolate. Then after some walking and Belgium facts, we ended at Marc's place of business (walking tours of Brussels) where we dined on a three course lunch. Amazing food and way too much food! Along with food, beer was paired with the courses. Thank goodness after dining we continued with the tour and much needed walking. The only disappointment was no waffle. No history of the waffle. Belgium is known for the waffle. We all wanted a waffle! The waffle was suppose to be part of the tour. Except for no waffle, I would highly recommend this tour. But be sure to understand this is not a typical food tour with tastings from different restaurants. But the food we had was wonderful!!

I would highly recommend this tour. The food was great and an accurate representation of some of the top ten well renowned Belgian dishes. I was also satisfied that we were given enough time at each sightseeing point/stopover to ask questions and take pictures. Our guide Mark also really made the day quite a memorable one as he is extremely knowledgeable and one can also tell that he is continually keeping up to date with the latest news and research on all topics covered within the tour to ensure that the experience for tourists is not only enjoyable but that it is relevant to the expectations of travelers and tourists.

This tour was an excellent sampling of Brussels food, culture and history. Our guide, Ithier (sp?), was pleasant and knowledgeable about all our stops. Everyone was included in the conversations while walking, which we enjoyed. He accommodated anyone with specific food and drink needs. From how chocolate was sourced to the best time of year to eat mussels, he knew it all. Small group of 6 made it more personal. Solid and memorable experience that I would highly recommend.
