Start off from the heart of Brussels, the Grand Place, one of the most beautiful squares in Europe that is surrounded by opulent buildings like the Town Hall. King Leopold’s dream of viewing a cultural complex a few meters away from the Royal Palace bore the idea of Mont des Arts where you will marvel at a number of prestigious museums.
A rather odd but funny attraction at the same time is the Manneken Pis fountain. Further down, you will have the chance to admire the Église catholique Notre-Dame-du-Sablon and St Michael and St Gudula Cathedral, spectacular Gothic cathedrals of monumental architecture.
The latter is one of the most important landmarks in the city and one of the most extraordinary cathedrals in Europe. It features 64-meter tall towers that you can climb every second and fourth Saturday of the month and enjoy a magnificent view.
The magnificent Royal Palace of Brussels and the Parc de Bruxelles are not to be missed. Take a moment to relax in the Parc du Cinquantenaire, an impressive U-shaped complex including an arc at its center and a 30-hectare park.
For many people, the main reasons for visiting Brussels are related to the European Union. The Council of the European Union and the European Commission the EU Headquarters are amongst the highlights of the area. At the end of the ride, your driver will drop you off at your accommodation.
