About
You will discover why Leuven is considered one of the hidden gems of Europe and an up-and-coming city destination for those that want to avoid the tourist crowds. It has all the picturesque charm and history of other historical Flemish cities and in addition it has one of the oldest universities in the world (early 15th century!).
There's more, because Leuven is not just a historical city. Last year, it was named the most innovative city of Europe and its mixture of students and locals makes it a very lively city, with many places to enjoy the true Belgian life with a drink and a good meal. A tour of this Belgian city would not be complete without this aspect, therefore, history and heritage are intertwined with food tastings; a history and food tour of Leuven.

- His1doll0 contributionsWWI Battlefields TourThis was a highlight of our vacation!!!! Natalie organised an incredible itinerary for us. She is very knowledable and friendly. This private tour is fully worth it. If you are interested in touring WWI battledfields I highly recommended booking Alternative Belgium and having Natalie as your personal tour guide.Written 30 August 2024
- robertbB6052RL0 contributionsWonderful Learning ExperienceIn late May, 2024, my wife and I arranged a tour of the Flanders Region with Alternative Belgium. This tour included visits to many WW 1 sites in what is commonly referred to as Flanders Fields, and also a visit to the city of Ypres. Our experience with Alternative Belgium and our tour guide Natalie was exceptional. We were picked up at our hotel and while driving to the sites, Natalie provided us with informative background commentary. We were interested in seeing sites important to Canadians, and Natalie had tailored our tour to accomplish this. We were allowed to decide how to spend our time, and never felt rushed. Throughout the day, Natalie demonstrated her deep knowledge of Belgian and WW 1 history. The day was pleasant and a wonderful learning experience. Without hesitation, I am confident in recommending Alternative Belgium for private tours of this beautiful and fascinating land.Written 4 June 2024
- rsjaffe0 contributionsExcellent Private TourToured WWI battlefields with Wendy. She was highly knowledgeable and tailored the tour to our interests. It's hard to say "enjoy" when it's such a sobering topic, but we had an impactful, valuable tour. The price also can't be beat.Written 24 June 2023
- CarmenKf0 contributionsGhent for all agesIt was a fun tour for my 3 year-old son, my husband and I. The three of us got to know Ghent and its beautiful hidden and not so hidden spots. Highly recommend it!Written 20 August 2020
