European Quarter Comedy Tour Brussels
Overview of the tour in Brussels
Join Brussels’ first European Union-themed free walking tour, where an EU insider and comedian will walk you behind the scenes of the European District. With the right combination of history, political insight, and humor, you will learn how the European Union works (and how it really works).
As the de facto capital of the EU, Brussels is where many of the laws and policies that affect over 500 million European citizens are decided. Yet, the European Quarter remains a relatively unexplored part of Brussels for most visitors. This tour was born to change that. Walk with a former EU insider and professional comedian through stately parks, ample boulevards, and imposing official buildings and learn about the history of the European Union, the roles of its main institutions, and the behind-the-scenes work of bureaucrats, journalists, and lobbyists. And how all of it changed the fate of Brussels.
This is a tip-based tour: you decide the price you pay.
The guide: your guide will be Dani Mora, a Spanish-born comedian based in Brussels, writer and performer of "the Schuman Show", Brussels-own EU politics comedy show, and former lobbyst in a non-so-distant life.
This activity includes:
- European Parliament
- Leopold Park
- European Commission
- Council of the European Union
- European Committee of the Regions
- House of European History
- Rond point Schuman
On arrival
You will find your guide with a blue umbrella just outside the main entrance to the European Commission HQ (Berlaymont) in Rue de la Loi, 200. It is right outside the metro station (Schuman) on the corner with Boulevard Charlemagne (the south-western corner of the Commission building).
Things to note
