Eclectic city
Brussels is much more than the home of Herge, creator of Tintin; much more than the "Art Nouveau" that found its full expression here thanks to architect Victor Horta; and more also than home to the main institutions of the European Union; The lively pace of this ancient city makes Brussels seem forever young. To capture its spirit, we suggest you take a walk around the Grand Place, and then move on to the lively Béguinage, where you’ll find the ever popular Manneken Pis sculpture of a little boy answering a call of nature. We also propose a visit to Coudenberg Hill, and another to Parc Royal – the elegant and aristocratic districts of Brussels. And of course, a not-to-be missed visit to the Flemish masterpieces in the Museum of Ancient Art.

The fiery city
Liege is an unfairly neglected destination. This ancient Episcopal city admirably combines the cultural wealth of its history with its magnificently verdant setting. Known as the “Fiery City”, Liege has preserved many remains of its former glory. These include its magnificent collegiate churches with their amazing cloisters, a masterpiece of baptismal fonts and the spectacular Prince-Bishop Palace which looks down on the symbolic ruins of a cathedral with a tragic past… What add to its charm, are its various districts, with their strange flights of steps, parks, lanes and unusual cul-de-sacs. Together, they combine to lend a timeless feel to the town.
We have 2 audio visits -audio walks- on offer, which will take you through the lanes of old Liege, exploring its charm, history and monuments. The second tour starts where the first leaves off.
