    Great Beer, Great Bars, and Fantastic Guide
    Sebastian was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable. Took us down many alley ways to pubs and bars we would never have discovered on our own and providing information about every pub and the beers we were trying. Small, very compatible group of 7 of. It was like going out drinking with friends. Highly recommend

    Workshop needs work but your is fantastic
    The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating of our schedule. I would have preferred the workshop to include some nicer options for “making” chocolate - for what we paid I was underwhelmed with that part of the experience. I liked the walking tour and learned a lot. Overall I enjoyed this tour - the selection of chocolate shops and samples were fantastic and appreciated the discount offered by several chocolate shops we visited!

    A good tour at half the price
    Guide did not have the suggested shirt on nor the sign. We only found him after he called us twice. The square is large and very crowded. Tour was informative and generally conformed to the advertisement but was overpriced for what we got. Don’t offer Chimay but not deliver it! Guide should clean up his language in the presence of the ladies.

    Hidden gems with delicious beer !
    What a highly enjoyable and informative tour with entertaining guide Sebastian! He showed us some real hidden gems that we would never have experienced had we not gone on the tour. Some more snacks is all that is needed to make this experience perfect!

    A great tour and way to get acclimated in Brussels. We did this the first day we arrived. Our guide (Antonio) was knowledgeable and entertaining. A very enjoyable tour.

We have been on multiple food tours in different cities around the world, but this one was not amongst the best. The food was good, although nothing extraordinary, but the guide did a poor job presenting the different tastings. At the beer tastings we got a lot of good and interesting information, so I think the guide was a bit more interested in beer than food. The tour also involved relatively long stretches of walking, during which little or no information were given. I would suggest that they put some more effort into giving fact and information about Brussels when walking between the sights and tastings. On the plus side, the portions were generous and it was plenty of food. All in all, a mediocre experience.

My friend and I enjoyed the tour. The guide was careful to spend time talking to each person and involved everyone. He was a really nice guy. The chocolates were excellent. My only negative would be that the bulk (3 courses) of the food was served at the company headquarters. It could be my error having not read up on the tour enough. I thought that we would be walking and sampling food from different vendors for the whole tour not just part of it. However, the food and beer were of good quality. We were really lucky and had some great people on the tour with us and we ended up staying in the waffle shop after the guide had left. We had a really great time.

Hello David, thank you for your nice review. I want to clarify that the location where you went for lunch is a real restaurant. The reason is to have the lunch of three dishes done in 1 hour and 15 minutes, which would be impossible in another restaurant with other clients waiting to get served. And you forget to mention that the Brussels's waffle for dessert was done at Mokafe in the Royal Galleries.

Had a great time and it was a great tour. Avo was very interesting to listen to, and made sure to chat to everyone in the group. The tour focused mainly on the food/drink but did get to hear plenty of history about Brussels. There was a great explanation about Belgium chocolates, the history of Belgium chocolates and got to sample some in two different chocolate shops. Left the tour very full and a little bit merry.

Love this tour! Our guide was humorous and knowledgeable about the area and food! She was a pleasure to be around and was accommodating to our needs. The food was fantastic! Definitely book this if you want to get a full course meal of Belgian cuisine. This tour itself could be a good half day trip for those looking to pop into Brussels for a quick stop. Not much of a beer drinker but it was nice trying all the different kinds of beers!

Under impressive and not worth the cost. Food was not all that special. Not much of a history of the sites. Felt like he was dragging out the time but not covering much of the sites. The spot for muscles and meat balls was not a real restaurant and was very sterile. We were the only ones in the place.

Myself and my friend did the tour as we were only in Brussels until 7pm and wanted to incorporate food and beer. Great tour! Our tour guide was really good and helpful. She encouraged questions and answered all the groups questions. She was a Belgian person too who values their traditions and promotes authentic local handcrafted goods!

We really enjoyed this tour of Brussels. It provided a good overview of the city with lots of historic information. Our guide was Avo. He led us to the various sites and then to the two chocolate shops for tasty samples. Then we went to the company's headquarters where the main menu was served. The soup, mussels, meatballs and beer samples were all very tasty. We ended the tour with waffles at another location. Fun, informative and tasty tour.

We had an amazing time with our tour guide Eddy! He was so informative and so kind. Our tour group was so fun and we ended up becoming very friendly with them. The food served was so yummy and it was nice to be sat down with those in our group to eat together. The beer was yummy which was surprising because I don't like beer much. Definitely would recommend! - Alexa, Devin, Danielle, & Gaby
