No visit to Belgium is complete without trying the beers. There is no other country in the world with a beer culture like Belgium. The tradition, the diversity and of course the quality of our beers are so exceptional that UNESCO even declared it UNESCO World Heritage.

During this tour you will not only taste six local beers (all from Antwerp!) at six beautiful, authentic locations, but you’ll also learn all about our belgian beer culture.

Join us and experience Belgian beer as a local!

Frequently Asked Questions

Someone in our party doesn't like beer. Are there alternatives?

Of course! At every stop beer can be replaced be soda for the same price. If you'd prefer wine instead please select the "wine instead of beer" option for the correct number of people. Since wine is a bit more expensive than beer there is a surcharge. Also please note that the bars have been selected for their beers. They will only have a very limited wine selection.
