About this experience
VISIT ONLY IN SPANISH. The Brussels region has 19 "communes" or town councils. Specifically, in Saint-Gilles and Ixelles there are several of the most notable houses of Art-Nouveau architecture, created by the most innovative architects of the late 19th century. Do you want to discover them? (All houses will be seen from the outside, an interior visit is not included in any of them). Learn about the most used techniques in the world of Art-Nouveau. What is sgraffito, and how is it different from frescoes? What was the first Art-Nouveau house? Discover the remains of Victor Horta's Maison du Peuple. All this and much more on a three-kilometer tour of the outskirts of Brussels, where you can admire some of the most beautiful streets of the Belgian capital.
What's included
Included
- Professional guide only in Spanish.
Not included
- All the houses will be seen from the outside, from the street.
What you'll see and do
We start our walk at the Horta Metro station. We will go down to discover the mysteries it contains.
Pass by without stopping
Perhaps one of the least known Art-Nouveau houses, but also one of the most striking. Who created the Maison de Beck?
Pass by without stopping
Saint-Gilles lives not only from Art-Nouveau. The entire neighborhood stands out for its beautiful architecture, and the town hall was not going to be less.
Pass by without stopping
Paul Hamesse may not be one of the most famous architects in Brussels, but he created great works that are admired by all who pass by, for example the old Pathé Cinemas in the city center. At this point we will see the exterior of his personal house and we will comment on his life and work.
Pass by without stopping
You may think it's a castle, but it's actually a prison. Perhaps one of the most beautiful in the world. Why was it built here, in the middle of town? Did it have a special purpose?
Pass by without stopping
Perhaps, after several restorations, this is not the clearest example of Art-Nouveau, but certain peculiarities make it particularly interesting for this walk.
Pass by without stopping
In every corner of this city we can find an impressive house. The architect Jules Brunfaut did not want to be left behind, and here we can see the only house he built in the Art-Nouveau style in Brussels.
Pass by without stopping
Horta Museum (Musee Horta)
The home and studio of the most famous Art-Nouveau architect in Belgium and perhaps worldwide. His personal home is also a museum dedicated to his art. We will see the building from the street.
Pass by without stopping
If we can only talk about two modernist architects in Brussels, the first is undoubtedly Horta, the second would be Hankar. This is your personal home. What's so special?
Pass by without stopping
Called Maison Rosenbaum or Roosenboom, it was the personal home of this architect. Perhaps one of the houses that most reminds us of Alphonse Mucha's famous posters. What will that be about the sgraffito?
Pass by without stopping
Perhaps this façade leaves us a little cold if we look at it superficially, but once you get into the details, you will not be able to miss them. One of the most remarkable works of Paul Hankar, attached to another of the most remarkable works of Paul Hankar.
Pass by without stopping
Hotel Ciamberlani
Totally remarkable, the current Argentine Embassy in Brussels is one of the clearest examples of Art-Nouveau Architecture with one of the most beautiful sgraffito that can be found on a building. Enjoying a mate in this building must be an absolute pleasure!
Pass by without stopping
Hotel Tassel
It is considered the first work of Art-Nouveau architecture in the world. Designed by Víctor Horta and completed in 1893, it marked a turning point in the history of architecture. We will end our tour admiring this house, which was named a World Heritage Site by Unesco in the year 2000.

Visiting Brussels without art noveau is not a complete visit
Excellent knowledge on the subject of Samuel, our Guide. Very enjoyable and didactic way to expose the subject. It was almost three hours, although the initial duration was two. I don't mind going overboard in time to explain and tell everything planned

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brussels.
How much does 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau cost?
+
Prices start at $18 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brussels usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brussels is not rushed.
Is 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Brussels, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brussels can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brussels and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brussels within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brussels?
+
On Outty we rank every Brussels experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hungry Mary's Famous Beer and Chocolate Tour in Brussels, Brussels: Historical Walking Tour with Chocolate & Waffle Tasting, Brussels Chocolate Beer Waffle and Belgian Whiskey All-in-One (Small Group) Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brussels?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brussels?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
