Martin was a fun guide. He shared stories, and history of the chocolate and beer which kept the tour upbeat. Well worth the time and cost!
We had a fabulous experience on this tour! Clements was a fantastic tour guide. He was so knowledgable and fun! He shared so much helpful information about the city - its history, and culture. The chocolate and beer were also deliciously plentiful. We were pleasantly surprised to sample the legendary fries and waffles Additionally, his assistant, Julie, was enjoyable to talk with, and made the whole experience go extremely smoothly. We enthusiastically recommend this tour and our capable guide and assistant.
No joke, this was the most fun I've ever had on a tour! Our guide Clemens was hilarious, super kind, and very knowledgeable. The beer, chocolate, and waffles were all amazing and we left the tour feeling like we had made new friends from all over the world. This tour was definitely worth our time & money - 100% recommend!
Possibly the most enjoyable tour I've ever taken. Our guide, Clemens, was kind, engaging, and utterly hilarious. A lot of beer and chocolate was consumed and it was fun getting to know others on the tour. 100% recommended.
Even more fun than I expected. Clemens and Elana were wonderful hosts, giving us a great tour, and informed lessons in local beers and chocolates. The shops where we stopped were wonderful. The walking part of the tour is a pleasant, relaxed pace, where our group ranging in age from 30 to 89 were all smiling through the event.
Would definitely recommend. Clemens teaches you a lot along the way while also making it fun. We learned a lot about chocolate and tried many different types along with other snacks along the way. And more importantly we learned about some different Belgium beers and had a nice buzz by the end of the trip. You have lots of time to get to know other members in the group which was also very nice. Clemens also had an assistant Laina who made everything flow nice by derving and preparing all of our chocolates and beers at each stop along the tour.
This was a great tour…very educational but fun. Clemens was an excellent tour guide! Would highly recommend for anyone going to Brussels.
It was so much fun. We got to try different kinds of beer, see and hear about different historical places, and try new kinds of Belgien chocolate. My friends and I had a good time
Excellent time exploring Brussels via the beer and chocolate scene. Appreciated learning about the different beers and what sets the chocolate apart from all of the chain brands. Daphne and Lena were excellent guides and very friendly and knowledgeable
f you can only do one thing in Belgium, make it this tour. This was, without question, the best Viator tour I've ever done. Martin was an outstanding guide - his knowledge of Belgian beer and chocolate was incredible, and he made every stop interesting with engaging stories and explanations. I came away feeling like I had learned so much, not just sampled great food and drinks. Speaking of samples, come hungry! There was an amazing amount of beer and chocolate to taste, with delicious waffles and fries mixed in along the way. The tour was also perfectly paced, with an excellent balance of walking through the city and sitting down to relax and enjoy the tastings. I've done many food and drink tours around the world, and this one stands above the rest. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thank you, Martin, for such a memorable experience!
