Full description
With this fantastic private tour, set off on a journey of discovery around Brussels, the capital of Belgium and the second most cosmopolitan city in the world. Split into two sections, explore both the Lower City and the Upper City and understand the origins and historic development of the city.  Your tour will begin in the Lower City at the Grand Place, the central square of Brussels. Head towards the Manneken Pis, a landmark bronze sculpture, before continuing towards the Saint-Géry island, once the largest island in the Senne river. Marvel at the beautiful St. Catherine square, then pass through the stunning De Brouckère and Monnaie squares. Discover the spectacular federal opera house of Belgium before ending at the Saint-Hubert Royal Galleries, an ensemble of glazed shopping arcades. In the afternoon, continue your exploration of Brussels in the Upper City. Starting from the Grand Place again, climb uphill towards the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, where you can admire the stained-glass windows from the inside. From the cathedral, head towards the Place des Palais, where you will find the royal park and palace. Visit the Musical Instruments Museum or pass by the Magritte museum and the Palace of Fine Arts to arrive at the Petit Sablon and the Grand Sablon.

Sehr gute Führung, freudlich, locker, interessant mit vielen Informationen, Fragen konnten alle beantwortet werden. Schade war, dass am Anfang eine kleine Unsicherheit entstand, ob etwas nicht geklappt hat, da der guide erst 10:12 Uhr am Hotel ankam. Dafür hat der uns im Anschluss der Führung noch unterstützt bei der Wahl des richtigen Buses sowie beim Fahrkartenkauf. Das war sehr freundlich und hilfreich. Wir würden den guide jederzeit wieder buchen bzw. weiter empfehlen.

Wir sind sehr ausführlich durch Brüssel geführt worden. Hätten wir uns als Gruppe vorab mehr Gedanken zum Inhalt der Führung gemacht oder Wünsche geäußert, wäre unser Guide auch sehr gerne darauf eingegangen. Da wir aber alle zum ersten Mal in Brüssel waren, war dieser Rundumschlag sehr gelungen.

Louise holte uns direkt in unserer Unterkunft ab und führte uns mit viel Wissen, Charme und Enthusiasmus durch die Brüsseler Ober- und Unterstadt. Drei Stunden sind für eine Führung durch diese geschichtsträchtige, kulturreiche und pulsierende Metropole nicht zu viel.
