Additional Information

Join Brussels’ first European Union-themed free walking tour, where an EU insider and comedian will walk you behind the scenes of the European District. With the right combination of history, political insight, and humor, you will learn how the European Union works (and how it really works).

You pay what you wish at the end of the tour. All you need to pay now is Viator’s booking fee.

As the de facto capital of the EU, Brussels is where many of the policies that affect over 500 million European citizens are decided. Yet, the European Quarter remains a relatively unexplored part of Brussels. This tour was born to change that. Walk with a former EU insider and professional comedian through stately parks, ample boulevards, and imposing official buildings and learn about the history of the European Union, the roles of its main institutions, and the behind-the-scenes work of bureaucrats, journalists, and lobbyists.

Location
Schuman
You'll find your guide with a blue umbrella just outside the main entrance to the European Commission HQ (Berlaymont) in Rue de la Loi, 200. It is right outside the metro station (Schuman) on the corner with Boulevard Charlemagne (south-western corner of the building).
Cancellation Policy

Best tour in town - Even after 10 years living in Brussels I learned a lot during this tour: some history, the inner secrets of the "EU bubble" and of course, all the jokes. Dani's tour is super informative but above all, a lot of fun. 100% recommend both for tourists and residents.

Fun and informative - This was by far the best I've taken in Brussels. Dani is funny, witty and quite knowledgeable about the European institutions’s history and functions. The tour lasted about 2 hours, we had a quick stop at a cafe but all in all the time flew by without us even noticing, I highly recommend you join his tour! Thank you Dani!

A great tour! Brought my... - A great tour! Brought my family who has visited Brussels several times already and they really enjoyed it. The guide is a great story teller and was really good of adapting his stories according to the knowledge of the participants. I recommend the tour especially for visitors of people working in the "buble" and people interested in a fun tour about the EU quarter.

Demystified the EU in the best possible way - Love this tour and Daniel's humorous commentary and personal sharing from an insider view of how lobbyists work. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it's the highlight of my trip. He is also very warm, kind and incredibly patient.
