Overview

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’ centre 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…) .

(Tour offered only in English and also in French if only french speaking clients. No bilingual tours because it's not fun for you and would be too long).

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’ centre 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 areas you probably would not have visited on your own...
