“A very informative tour in addition to the food highlights. Walid is an excellent and energetic guide. You get 8 pieces of deluxe pralines, fries or waffle, and 4 Belgian beers to try. The pacing was quite good. If there was a way logistically to get a half waffle and half fries order, that’d be even better. If participating as a couple, I’d recommend getting one of each to share.”

Brussels Chocolate Beer Waffle and Belgian Whiskey All-in-One (Small Group) Tour

10.Brussels Chocolate Beer Waffle and Belgian Whiskey All-in-One (Small Group) Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 551 reviews · 5 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $168

Join guide Avo for a five-and-a-half-hour walk through central Brussels, with 12 chocolate tastings, speculoos, six Belgian beers, cheese, sausages, frites, a waffle, and Belgian whiskey. The group is limited to 10, and the tour includes Grand Place, the Royal Galleries, Manneken Pis, and lesser-known local bars.

“Imagine if you had a tour guide who loved what they did when they worked with bigger tours operators, but their bosses continually wanted them to stick to the same main/boring script. They got fed up with that and instead they broke off and tailored a tour to show the real Brussels (food, beer, culture) in a small group setting. This is one tour I cannot recommend enough to truly see what Belgium is all about. You get just the right amount of food, beer, chocolate, whiskey, and history. The value is definitely worth the price and I can say that if I ever came back I’d even consider rebooking.…”

Instructors such as Patricia and Elisabetta guide the class in English. Your creations go home in a gift box, with a VIP option adding champagne and an embroidered apron.

“We had Elisabetta. She was so very detailed! One thing I will say that holds true like other reviews is that there is no ruby chocolate samples or on how it’s made and there is walking to the lab part (it has stairs, so might need to contact about accessibility). We had so much fun! It’s very good quality and very informative. Definitely a good activity”
