Underlined and necessary - It is an excellent tour; the dark side of Brussels is a must for history and medieval enthusiasts. The tour guide has great energy and a touch of dark humor, which is essential for this type of history. Highly recommended!

A different tour - David showed us a different vision of Brussels, worth taking this tour. The visit lasted almost three hours, during which he told us many curiosities.
