Il programma nel dettaglio

Taste Brussels and nibble on some luxury Belgian chocolates with this afternoon grand tour of the capital of Europe. You will see some of the most outstanding landmarks that the city has to offer, including royal palaces, churches, parks and cutting edge architecture.


The tour begins with a stroll to the beautiful Grand Place, dominated by the almost 100 metre tall Gothic belfry of the city hall. The square is the heartbeat of the city and it is flanked by partly gilded guild houses of the breathtaking beauty. Each one tells a different story as your guide will reveal.


We will then head out to the suburbs, passing by the Gothic grandeur of the cathedral on our way to the Atomium, a futuristic building made of interconnected spheres. The nearby Chinese Gardens and Japanese Tower are next on the itinerary.


Across the Royal Demesne is the Royal Palace of Laeken, the elegant residence of the King and Queen of the Belgians, which we’ll pass as we drive to the upmarket district of Sablon, famed for is boutiques and antiques dealerships.


You will see the eclectic Palace of Justice, which is believed to be the largest building built in the 19th century, as we continue our drive to the Place Royale before heading for the modernity of the European quarter, where you will see all the leading EU institutions. On our way back to the centre, we’ll pass a monumental triumphal arch, some eye-catching art nouveau houses and the Belgian Parliament.


During the tour, we will visit one of the best chocolatiers in town and you will learn how this delicious delicacy is made as well as sample a few pieces.
