About this experience
GUIDE IN SPANISH. In our guided tour you will learn what is the real importance of Belgian comics within the international scene, and which are the schools and authors that have made their fame possible. You’ll learn about the “clear line” that’s talked about so much in French-Belgian comics, and you’ll discover many of the murals that have been dedicated to the ninth art in the heart of Belgium. This tour is designed both for people who do not know anything about comics and those who are more familiar with this art. As if that weren’t enough, besides the murals, you’ll know Tintin’s house (before he moved into Moulinsart Castle) and the statue hidden in plain sight of The Smurfs. You’ll also discover new places in central Brussels that aren’t included in other guided tours, along with some of the shops where you can buy Belgian comics in your native language. Come enjoy the national comic with Curiositas Mundus!

A pleasure of a tour!
We loved it. Samuel made the tour enjoyable, super interesting, and very personal. We enjoyed it a lot, it is clear that he loves his work and has a lot of knowledge about the subject. It has been a pleasure!
Response from the operator: ¡Muchas gracias por tan alegre comentario! El placer es nuestro.

Special!
Spectacular, 100% recommend Samuel is a great. Knowledgeable about the comic world, very interesting and outside the usual tourist circuit.

Recommended to 200% if you like the comic, and if you are not a lover you will start to like, Samuel awesome as a guide
Stunning visit to the murals Samuel is an exceptional guide, he adapted to our level, in the group there were people with more and less knowledge of the world of comics and I think everyone liked it... recommended one hundred percent, I would repeat without a doubt, if you like the essential comic and if you have read something small to Tintin... You're gonna love it too.
Response from the operator: Siempre intentamos que el tour sea disfrutable a todos los niveles, y veo que lo hemos conseguido al menos en esta ocasión. :) Muchísimas gracias por esta reseña, ¡nos ayudan a crecer más de lo crees!

An essential Brussels with Samuel
Very good experience, to enter the Belgian culture of comics, an essential visit of the city, its buildings and as not its authors of comics, Samuel is a guide with an in-depth knowledge of the subject, I do not give an old comic to each reservation, a detail to thank and was extended three hours, recommending more aspects of the city, in the group I think we were all delighted
Response from the operator: ¡Muchísimas gracias! Reseñas como esta son las que nos hacen seguir cada día.

Super good, very pleasant
He spent the tour flying, very entertaining and you learn a lot of things about the world of comics. Samuel was the guide and knows a lot.
Response from the operator: ¡Muchísimas gracias! Un placer haberte tenido con nosotros y mayor placer aún que disfrutaras tanto. ¡Te esperamos en tu próxima visita a Bélgica!

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Comic Book Tour in Brussels: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brussels.
How much does Comic Book Tour in Brussels cost?
+
Prices start at $15 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 Comic Book Tour in Brussels take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Comic Book Tour in Brussels worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 19 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 Comic Book Tour in Brussels?
+
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 Comic Book Tour in Brussels suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Comic Book Tour in Brussels?
+
Around 7 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Comic Book Tour in Brussels 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 Brussels: Historical Walking Tour with Chocolate & Waffle Tasting, Hungry Mary's Famous Beer and Chocolate Tour in Brussels, 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.
