Why a hands-on activity beats a museum queue

Many city attractions ask children to look and listen. A workshop lets them make something, and chocolate is an easy way to keep a mixed-age group interested. The walk between tastings gives your family a guided look at the centre of Brussels without a long day of sightseeing.

What families should know

The minimum age is 6. Infants are not allowed on this tour, and the tour is not wheelchair or stroller accessible. If your family includes teenagers who like food, our Brussels food tour has a minimum age of 12.
