(Tour offered only in English or French). As you might not know Belgium is not only famous for its waffles, beers and chocolate but also for being the cradle of the 9th Art : comics (known as "bande dessinée -BD" in French). Never heard of Tintin, The Smurfs, Lucky Luke, Astérix, ... ? To commemorate the link between Belgium and comics, 73 murals have been painted throughout Brussels since the 90's. So together we will discover Brussels’ center throughout the visit of some of those comics murals/paintings. I will give you some short explanations on each of them and will answer your questions if you are curious on the subject. Of course there will be many other points of attention along the way like buildings, squares, and street art. If interested I can also give you my inner opinion and some tips for your next visits (bars, restaurants, museums...) .

    As you might not know Belgium is not only famous for its waffles, beers and chocolate but also for being the cradle of the 9th Art : comics. Never heard of Tintin, The Smurfs, Lucky Luke, Astérix, ... ? To commemorate the link between Belgium and comics, 50ish murals have been painted throughout Brussels since the 90's. So together we will discover Brussels’ center throughout the visit of some of those comics murals. I will give you some explanations on them and will answer your questions if you are curious on the subject. Of course there will be many other points of attention along the way like buildings, squares, and some street art. Don't expect to see all the comics murals (would require all day). It's not a historical tour, others do that better than I could. The point of this experience is to discover a part of Belgian comics culture/history and to show you -through a selection of comics murals- some streets and neighborhoods you probably would not have visited on your own...

This was one of the coolest walking tours I've ever been on! Cedric was an excellent guide! He brought us to many comic book murals and discussed the comics, the artists, the impact on Belgian culture, etc. He brought comics along to use during his discussion and used pictures and video to supplement as well. But he also shared cool architecture, historical sites, political sites and natural sites. So, in no means was it just about comics. It was just a really cool lens to view Brussels through. I highly recommend!!

This was an awesome tour! The murals are amazing and we were able to see parts of Brussels away from the touristy area. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the comics and threw in a little history of Brussels. If you are into comics, this is the tour for you. Brussels comics creators made historical changes in the way comics were presented. Brussels is such a great place with so many hidden gems and such wonderful people.
