The best of Brussels' neighborhoods, palaces, and parks
Explore the best of Brussels' sightseeing spots, from the Matongé, Marolles and Sablon neighborhoods, to the Old City Center, stopping at quirky sites including the EGG, and street art attractions. Plus, sink your teeth into a tasty Belgian waffle as a mid-tour treat! Your bicycle tour is led by enthusiastic local guides, committed to delivering your best experience of Brussels by bike.
Your day tour begins in the vibrant African neighborhood of Matongé, one of the trendiest regions of Brussels where Belgian bohemia blends with African culture. Bike through this buzzing neighborhood, where hip boutiques, cafes and street stalls trade amongst heritage-themed murals. This place provides a truly sensory experience - think music, street food, and eye-catching art.
Dip into the history of the EGG as you cycle up to this unusual landmark. Brussel’s answer to London’s ‘Gherkin’ is a hub of innovation, also hosting a cinema and restaurants at its center.
Moving on to Marolles, you’ll know you’re entering this trendy neighborhood when you see the golden dome of the Palais de Justice glistening above. Marolles is home to modern art galleries, cool cafes, and hip bars - by night, this place knows how to party!
Cycle on to Sablon, a chic neighborhood with cheerful chocolate shops and fashionable cafes. The star of Sablon is undoubtedly the Gothic Notre-Dame du Sablon Church, a colossal feat of intricate architecture that you can’t leave Brussels without seeing!
All along your cycling adventure, your guide will point out the key sights and stop at the best viewpoints for photographing Brussels. And, of course, there’s the waffle!

Great, fun, educational 3 hour bike tour
· Best of Brussels Bike Tour
Our guide Ahmed really did make the whole experience great. So knowledgeable, fun and took us to some lovely neighbourhoods we would never have seen or been to. Great value. Lovely stop for frites or a beer/glass of wine. Highly recommend. Would do the same tour when back. Electric bikes did help on a couple of hills but weren't really needed. Thumbs up.
