Additional Information

Explore the city from the perspective of an avid local resident. You can tailor the tour to your preferences or entrust the route to the local guide for a thoughtful city orientation. Emphasize the importance of personal connections during traveling, not just sightseeing. Our exploratory walks offer a break from conventional historical tours, enabling you to understand the city through the lens of a resident. Participate in a tour that modifies your travel perspective - valuing the individuals you meet as much as the landmarks you visit. Our local escorts (Lokafyers) exhibit a deep affection for their city and are excited to express their insights and viewpoints. Lokafyers don’t guide tours professionally or regularly, hence they deliver an experience that’s genuine and intimate, akin to a friend guiding you around their locale. At the end of the tour, you will be at ease navigating the city and be confident that you possess the necessary details to fully enjoy your visit.

  • Lokafy tours provide a general overview of the city with practical information from a local’s perspective, not detailed historical facts
  • In case travellers would like to include a visit to an attraction, they would need to cover the cost of entrance for themselves and also the Lokafyer (local guide)

Highlights of Brussels - Our guide showed us key statues and buildings in the city center, showed us good place to eat Belgium waffles and chocolates, and explained to us how to get a train ticket to return to our hotel. She even showed us several places to eat dinner. It was a fun afternoon in Brussels!

Exceeded our Expectations - We had such an amazing time with Daniel. If I could give more stars I would. He was so knowledgeable and entertaining. My friends and I got to see so much of the city highlights and learn about the history. As a wheelchair user, Daniel went above and beyond to make sure I had a fabulous experience. THANK YOU!

Wonderful guide, sites and information! - We had a wonderful tour with our guide Daniel. We asked him to take us away from the touristy city center, which he did. We were able to see some sites and some of the other districts around Brussels itself. He took us to a beautiful Abby and park. He walked us through some of the more modern districts in Brussels. The best part was all the information he shared about the people, culture and politics of Brussels. It was interesting to hear about what Brussels is trying to do as a city that hosts, NATO and the European Union, to be examples to other cities and people who come to visit Brussels. He also gave us many excellent restaurant and site recommendations that we followed up on afterwards, and really enjoyed.
