Overview of your Brussels tour

This is a half day tour to discover Brussels. Not only the highlights, but also the hidden gems of the city. Along more than thousand years of history, Brussels has been a place of cultural exchange, but also of wars. The history of Brussels includes figures such as Louis XIV of France, the writer Victor Hugo, the philosopher and economist Karl Marx, and many others. A vibrant city that is not only the capital of the European Union but also of NATO. We'll learn about all of this on this tour, always with a touch of humor. One advice: never ever say "French fries" in Belgium. Belgian people get angry when they hear that. They believe they were the first frying potatoes. I will explain you why...
