Simply the best. Passionate guide and a wonderful learning experience. - Overall this was one of the best tours I have ever been on and (Avo) was a guide beyond comparison. He truly cares deeply and passionately about Belgian food and culture. You will feel this and you will walk away with so much knowledge. It is 2 weeks later and I am still telling my friends about what I learned and trying to pass on the genuine thrill I received on this tour. The tour is organized in a very smart way. You will learn deeply about what you are going to sample. You will sample and you will appreciate it on a much deeper level. This level of intensity may not be for everyone however but as an educator I was left inspired by it. Simply the best and you will be full, possibly a bit drunk, satisfied and very, very happy when it concludes. I can't recommend it strongly enough.

Fantastic small group tour - This was one of the best small group tours my husband and I booked. Avo was fantastic. Informative about Brussels and Belgium’s history, as well as chocolate and beer histories and making. Walked around the historic district, tasted several different chocolates from different chocolatiers, had great waffles with cherries and chocolate (although you chose the toppings you want) and of course different beers. We visited the old neighborhood with quaint shops and cafe/restaurants. Our last stop was the tour guide’s head quarters where we were treated to mini sandwiches, higher quality beer and whisky. Tour was about 6 hours, a lot of fun, great company and did not bother with dinner reservations as we were full. Highly recommend this tour.

TRULY an all-in-one tour! - If you have time for only one tour, make it this one! After having given tours for decades, Avo has refined this one to be the best of the best. It is packed with information, from local history to everything you want to know (and more!) about Belgian chocolate and beer. The tour feels more like an intimate gathering of friends because Avo keeps the size small. He shows the highlights of the usual touristy spots, but also takes you into the more typical areas of town to give you a feel of local life. Chocolate lovers will enjoy learning about and understanding how the chocolate market developed. Even more, tasting the different types of chocolate (including in ice cream!). And even non-beer drinkers will learn about and appreciate the differences between the Belgian beers and why they evolved as they have. Avo even shows you what to look for on the beer labels for when you do your own hunting. Though it may look like a long time, it is perfectly paced and perfectly curated. It is well worth both the time and the cost. Thank you, Avo!

Every thing you need to know about Brussels' culinary delights - We got off a 14 hour journey and dug right into Brussels Food Exploration. Very informative. Relaxed but thorough explanation of beers, chocolate and whisky. We especially love the personal touch ending the tour in a private dining room with bites prepared by our guide himself. I learned so much about whisky, beer and chocolate. Will be making my waffles the Liege way from now on. Thanks for a memorable visit.

The Best of Brussels!! - This tour was the absolute best part of our time in Brussels. It felt like spending the day with a friend who wants to share the city and the best treats with you. Outstanding chocolate, amazing beer, a delicious waffle and wonderful whiskey. Our group of four from the states had the best of times with Avo. He is outstanding and worth every penny you spend and then some! You will learn so much and enjoy so much. This is a don’t miss experience
