Program details

With our fascinating, half-day tour of Brussels, you will get to know the European Union’s bustling capital city. From historical squares to modern government buildings, our itinerary offers the most complete tour imaginable of the Belgian capital.

Beautiful Grand Place serves as our introduction to Brussels. Behold the spectacle of the city’s architecturally stunning guildhalls in this centric square as well as the Gothic city hall. Afterwards, board our luxurious coach and drive past emblematic sights around the city like St Michael’s Cathedral, the world-famous Atomium, the Chinese Pavilion, the Japanese tower, Laeken’s residence and Royal St Mary’s Church.

Upon our return to the city centre, you will explore the Sablon district, an upscale, well-to-do area filled with elegant stores that sell beautiful antiques. After briefly stopping by the impressive Court of Justice, our itinerary continues to the stately Place Royale and the Royal Palace, two fine examples of Belgian imperial architecture.

Prepare to follow the footsteps of the European powers-that-be next with our visit to the European Parliament. Wander through the same corridors as high profile European politicians and imagine bumping into important political figures like Angela Merkel or François Hollande. Learn the history of the European Union and a watch a simulation of a court session. Before returning to the city centre, witness Brussels very own Arc de Triomph at the Park of the Jubilee followed by views of the Royal Parc and the Belgian Parliament.
