Brussels : 1000 Years of Struggles - Free Walking Tour

Experience the most rebelious neighborhood in Brussels ! During a walk around the entire district of "Les Marolles", you'll discover a place where the people have always been resistant to all forms of attack. From disease, war, and poverty of the past to the modern days battles of gentrification, globalization and real estate developers. You will be told the history of the urban battles that made the Marolles, and Brussels, what it is today.

Since 2018, I run Brussels By Foot in order to make you discover a different side of Brussels. Our alternative tours of Brussels are designed for tourists, expats, belgian visitors or even for curious Brusseleirs ! What's behind Grand Place, Atomium and the famous Manneken-Pis ? Take a walking tour with us and discover the real Brussels. Just like the most famous belgian journalist Tintin, walk into the tiny streets and see what classic free walking tour don't show you !
