Private Dinant's, Castle and Beer Monastery Expedition
Our adventure begins with an exploration of the Lorette-Rochefort Cave, where ancient geological formations create an otherworldly atmosphere. From there, we ascend to Châteaux Walzin, perched majestically above the scenic River Lesse, offering breathtaking views and a glimpse into the region's noble past. We venture into the charming town of Dinant, where medieval architecture and quaint cobblestone streets lead us on a journey through time. Our exploration of Belgian traditions takes us next to Maison Leffe, where we uncover the secrets behind the brewing process of one of Belgium's most celebrated beers. No visit to Belgium would be complete without a pilgrimage to Chimay Abbey, a serene sanctuary nestled amidst verdant forests and rolling hills. Here, we pause to reflect on the centuries-old traditions of the Trappist monks, whose dedication to prayer and contemplation has shaped the abbey's peaceful ambiance. Private tours can be booked after communication.

Chocolate and Jenever (Belgian Gin)Tasting in Ghent
Experience centuries of Belgian craftsmanship with this small-group tasting that combines two iconic Belgian products: chocolate & jenever. Indulge in five delicious pairings while gaining insights into these craft products and the artisans behind them. Belgium is renowned for its craft foods and drinks, but have you tried jenever?

We’ve paired them with chocolates from different chocolatiers across Belgium: a great opportunity to explore various styles of Belgian chocolate in a short time span. About us: our shop offers unique chocolate experiences, where quality is at its heart. We like to fully immerse you in the world of chocolate.

Brewery Visit in Ostend- Two 33cl Beers Included
What sets this experience apart is its intimate setting, where every visit feels personal. Instead of a scripted, large-group tour, you’ll enjoy a relaxed and interactive experience guided by someone deeply connected to the craft and story behind the brewery. The focus on artisanal brewing means you’ll gain insight into hands-on techniques and small-batch production methods that larger breweries simply can’t offer. You’re not just observing—you’re encouraged to ask questions, engage in conversation, and explore the process in as much detail as you’d like. With a limited number of guests, the atmosphere stays welcoming and unhurried, allowing for genuine connection, deeper learning, and a more authentic appreciation of the beers you taste. It’s a rare opportunity to experience craft brewing up close, straight from the source.

Ghent City Highlights Walking Tour with Light Mea/Snack
This experience blends an immersive walking tour with a relaxed, light meal at the end — the perfect way to explore Ghent with all your senses. We begin with a short introduction at the Vrijdagmarkt, before setting off on a 1.5- to 2-hour journey of discovery (meal included). Along the way, you’ll uncover the origin of Ghent’s name and step back to the very beginnings of the city, whose history stretches back nearly 1,400 years. Stroll past highlights such as Portus Ganda, the charming yacht harbour, the iconic three medieval towers — Saint Bavo’s Cathedral, the Ghent Belfry and Saint Nicholas’ Church — and the historic Graslei and Korenlei quays, once the vibrant heart of medieval trade. But Ghent is far more than its landmarks. The city is home to three peaceful beguinages, remarkable museums and green parks. It proudly hosted the World Expo of 1913 and has earned an international reputation as a capital of street art — well beyond the famous Graffiti Street.

Belgian Wines Tasting in a UNESCO Heritage Home in Ghent
Belgian wines is a booming and vibrant industry, yet still very small. Even in Belgium, it's hard to get hold of the wines as they come from many tiny estates scattered across the country and sold mostly in restaurants. Thanks to my background in the wine industry with sommelier courses and a wine master's degree in Bordeaux I've been able to made a selection of great tasting wines that also highlight the various aspects of Belgian winemaking. So in 1.5 hours you will get a full fledged immersion, an exclusive experience and special memories. Moreover, the experience takes place at a unique location: my penthouse is situated in one of the cosiest neighbourhoods of Gent, at a 10min walk from the city centre. The whole béguinage area is on the UNESCO heritage site list, and the house I live in was built in 1664. Outside it looks like hundreds of years ago, while inside it's been recently renovated without losing its historical veneer. It's lovely and spacious and waiting for you!
