Avo was our guide for the best walking tour we’ve ever done. He had so much information to share and was extremely personable. The beers and food were amazing. Seriously the amount of history and knowledge Avo has and talks about was astounding. Our whole group started as strangers and ended as friends. I would recommend this tour to anyone that likes beer (and even if you don’t, you will). Hopefully you will be lucky enough to get Avo as your guide. We are even thinking of signing up for another tour before we leave.

Great way to spend an afternoon
Brandon_H, May 2023
Sebastian was a great guide. Very knowledgeable about beers and the city with great recommendations. Highly recommend the tour.
A Must in Brussels
Joseph_A, May 2023
Phenomenal experience. All the guides were incredibly knowledgeable and they took us to 4 unique places where we tried a variety of Belgian beers. Great history lessons of Brussels as well! Highly recommend!
Nice tour not just beer tasting, but also with some smaller sightseeing-info.
Markus_D, May 2023
Nice tour not just beer tasting, but also with some smaller sightseeing-info. Most of the beers need to get used for the specific taste, but a broad range was given.
Believe it or not, it was an awesome trip!
Pascal_S, May 2023
Sebastian gave us a nice tour through Bruessels, with a lot of knowledge about beer, bars, history and lot more. Thanks
Do this tour!
Garrett_B, Apr 2023
Amazing time with a fantastic guide and great beers, guide was very knowledgeable about the city and the beers
We loved Eddy!
Ellen_J, Apr 2023
We took the beer tour with our guide Eddy. Eddy did an amazing job, we were a bit of a loud gang since we were there for a bachelor party, but he just rolled with it and made sure we had the best time. If you book this tour, ask for Eddy, you will not be disappointed!
Poor, not what it should/could be!
Kevin_K, Apr 2023
We did this tour 10 years ago, and it was absolutely fantastic. This time however just left us with a feeling of being ‘ripped off’. Eddie (guide) was a nice chap, but firstly didn’t drink beer, so how can he be passionate about it? It seemed like he was unclear of where he was going several times. The bars visited were poor, no real feel for what you can find in Brussels, we even went to the tour office (really disappointing). The food provided was nothing like what we received previously, so eat first. If they are going to charge such a huge premium price for this tour, when there is so much competition, then something needs to change. Doing a beer tour in Brussels is a must-do experience, but we will not be repeating Marc’s again!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Hello Kevin, thank you for your feedback. I don't understand your review, seeing all the 5reviews we have had for numerous years. I disagree about the tour being to expensive : how many tours in Brussels give you 8 beers on a 4-5 hours tour? Every day we try to improve things, because we like what we do.
Great local’s introduction to Belgium Ales
Martin_P, Mar 2023
A great tour led by a local with the knowledge of not only the Belgium beers but also some out of the way traditional old bars

Guide was nervous and didn't enjoy it
Mikaela_A, Dec 2022
I was very excited for this tour. It started off well enough, but after the first location and 2 beers, our guide seemed to go downhill. We were a small group of 5, one couple and then three solo travellers. We quickly got to know one another and were comfortable with each other. Our guide however was so reserved and standoffish. When we were walking from one place to the next he would get upset if we wanted to stop for 15 seconds take pictures. He told us we were making him nervous cause we were too loud. This listed 4 hours but he was rushing us from place to place so he left at about 3 hours. When we were at the walking tour location he was quite rude to the other staff member there. Additionally, I was looking forward to all the food, cheese and chocolate pairings which were listed in the description but we only got a couple small pieces of bread with smears at the one location. It was fun because of the other people on the tour but the guide and the execution accuracy could be improved.
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Hello Mikaela, you belonged to this beer tour with Alex. I have never seen 3 bad reviews for one guide and the same tour. Oviously you talked to each other after the tour. One of you joined the tour the next day with Sebastien and promised us to change her review into a 5 star review. The guide had a bad day and is not working for us anymore. We are sorry for what happened and if you return back one day, please let me know. You will get a free tour.

Go with another tour company
Cinthya_c, Dec 2022
Horrible! Our tour guide stared out really nice and by the 2nd place he was in a bad mood, he was hurrying us up in every place. We did not have chocolate and/or cheese, just a couple of Licea of bread with spread on it. Guide was super rude by the end and even finish the tour before 7pm. Do not recommend!
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Hello Cinthya, I see that you belonged to the same group of 5 people, that did the tour with Alex. Again we are very sorry for what happened. Alex will never again work for us. We also want to propose you a full refund. And a free ticket for the beer tour today or tomorrow with Sebastien.

Needs. New guide
Alicia_N, Dec 2022
The tour guide Alex was horrible. About 30 minutes into the tour he mentally checked out and was just not good. He didn’t interact much with us and walked incredibly fast. He also complained a lot that we speak loudly. The whole group was 5 people who just met and all got along, what did he expect?
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Hello Alicia, I am very sorry to hear this. In the mean time we have fired the guide. He won't be working for us anymore. I think we have never received a review like this. We would like to propose you a full refund for this tour. And if you like you can join the beer tour today or tomorrow for free, with our best guide Sebastien. Please let us know. Dear Alicia, we are still waiting for your response about the free tour we offred you the next day with Sebastien. We talked and you said that you had a great tour. So please keep your promise to adjust your review.

Fun and knowledgeable tour guide!
Cameron_H, Nov 2022
Had an amazing time on this tour! Our tour guide, Sebastian, was super kind and knowledgeable! He not only shared history on each beer we tasted but also some fun history about the city as we walked around. Would highly recommend this tour!
Informative and...
PAul_A, Nov 2022
Informative and enlightening tour which visits unique locations you would not likely know about as a visitor, or maybe even as a resident, and you get to taste some good beers and meet interesting people.
Excellent afternoon
Kris_P, Nov 2022
Sebastian obviously has a passion for the city of Brussels and the beer too. He is honest and interesting and certainly makes everyone feel at ease during the tour whilst also giving great information on the beer as well as the city.
We met as a group of strangers and parted as a group of friends
Victor_G, Nov 2022
Sebastian met us on time. He was welcoming and ensured the whole group (14) felt engaged from the outset. There is a little walking, a little history and plenty of beer to sample along the way. We met as a group of strangers and parted as a group of friends. Big thanks to Sebastian and each of you on the tour, a wonderful experience, cheers to you all x
Texas couple
Linda_V, Oct 2022
Sebastian was fun, knowledgeable on the choice’s of beer in depth, and selection of bars were unique and awesom😉
Highly reccomend
Ditzan_G, Oct 2022
The guy's funny, really knows his stuff, real kind, and makes quite the experience out the whole thing.
Fun beer tour!
DrJamesTaylorFRSA, Oct 2022
Fun, beer fuelled your taking in some quirky pubs. Knowledgable guide and friendly group. It was good to learn about the different beers and share the experience with the group.
Max Rocks
Jeremy_W, Sep 2022
Max was an amazing tour guide. Our group of 6 learned a TON about beers of Belguim and would recommend this tour to everyone :)!
Great beer tour
Richard_S, Sep 2022
