The Experience

What your day looks like

This isn’t a scripted food tour—it’s a personalized tasting experience through Brussels, guided by a local foodie who knows where to find the city’s real culinary soul. Whether you’re in the mood for comforting Belgian stews and frites, gooey waffles, or flavors from global neighborhoods, every bite is curated just for you. Expect to explore a mix of beloved street food vendors, family-run brasseries, and hidden dining gems you won’t find in guidebooks. From time-honored dishes to modern twists, this journey is packed with flavor, stories, and local insight. After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire to help us learn about your preferences. Based on your responses, we’ll pair you with a like-minded host who will create a flexible itinerary tailored to your tastes. You can adapt your tour as you go, because discovering Brussels should be as spontaneous as it is satisfying.

Detailed Itinerary

The journey, in full

Join this personalised experience, and your host will create an itinerary for you based on what you would like to do. You won’t have time to see everything, so here are some ideas: Get a taste of what makes Brussels so iconic, with a twist – your stories will be authentic and all your own! You’ll visit the most renowned chocolatiers, artisanal maisons du chocolat, and quirky chocolate boutiques where chefs are getting creative with their truffle flavors! Would you like to dive into the rich brewing tradition of the city and bar hop your way through breweries and craft beer bars (where you can also have a boogie, if the mood takes you)? Or have you been dying to experience the city’s techno scene for yourself? See the iconic Atomium. It’s weird and wonderful - exactly why we like it! See this neighbourhood if you want to discover unique bars, Congolese restaurants, and jazz clubs in Saint-Boniface. This is the African Quarter; there’s more to Brussels’ nightlife than you may have imagined. Get the scoop from your host on other areas to explore and exciting things to do whilst visiting the Belgian capital Iconic attractions, insider stories, and a waffle or two. There are also traditional pain sucrés to taste at Maison Dandoy; think gingerbread made with honey and spices and filled with pearl sugar, ginger, apples, or fruits. This bakery is still making Belgian sweet pastries according to their great-great-great-grandfather’s recipes - they’re just that good! You could visit artisanal maisons du chocolat and quirky chocolate boutiques where chefs are getting creative with their truffle flavors - Laurent Gerbaud offers flavors ranging from olive oil to ginger and even curry - or you could keep to the classic, impossibly creamy pralines which Belgium is so famous for. Or perhaps you’d prefer a fresh waffle dusted with sugar at a quirky cafe with tables spilling out onto the sidewalk? Pick up some fries at Friterie Tabora IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences
