A fascinating introduction to Brussels, its highlights, hidden gems and its diversity of neighbourhoods.

Get a broader view on the city by discovering it by bike! Enjoy the perfect mix between the city’s highlights such as les Marolles, Place Sainte Catherine, the Palace of Justice and lesser known hidden gems you would not discover by yourself.

We put the bicycles aside at the halfway point to take a small break in a cosy bar or on one of the many terraces (drink is optional and not included in the ticket).

Discover Brussels by bike and get enchanted by the city!

  • Perfect way to see the city

    My wife and I were the only 2 people booked on the English speaking tour on a cold January morning, but rather than cancel due to lack of numbers, it still went ahead. We had our very own private tour with Renaat. It couldn’t have been any better, Renaat is extremely knowledgable on the history of Brussels, brought us to places we never even knew existed, and also as we were in no rush, and neither was Renaat, we even go an extension beyond the usual times! Rating with 5 stars, only because there isn’t a much higher rating!! Superb, thank you so much team for a memorable day out.

    When myself and my husband arrived to do this tour it turned out to be only the two of us who had booked the tour for this particular date. We met our guide Renaat and he was just the perfect guide. He looked after us so well on the tour. He is so knowledgeable on the history of Brussels. We thoroughly enjoyed Renaat's company.

    Had a great time, saw things that we would never have seen in Brussels had we not been on the tour. Renaud was interesting and knowledgeable and it was great value for money.

    We had chosen the bike ride "The must-sees and unusual places of Brussels". This walk proposed by Cactus is great, very interesting thanks to the many comments of Philippe our guide. It allows you to discover places you would never have gone alone. To do without hesitation!

    Fabulous tour! The freedom to look around whilst the guide does the navigating, and interesting tales along the way. We learnt so much about Brussels and its history (beyond waffles and beer!) It was the highlight of our mini break. Highly recommended.

  • A Great Mini-Adventure!

    An interesting and informative ride around some of Brussels less visited but important locations. I learned much more about the city, its citizens and organisation than expected, all delivered with a light and often humorous touch. Our guide (Reynaart) obviously loves his city and knows it well. We were a group of six. Bikes were well maintained. Helmets are available. The vast majority of riding is on designated cycleways. Cactus is a non-profit and guides are volunteers. I highly recommend supporting this worthwhile venture.

  • Very nice walk and guide to the top!

  • Fun, Off-the-Beaten Path Activity for Brussels

    This was a great tour to see more of the city and learn about areas outside of Grand Place. Our tour guide, Philip, was well prepared with laminated diagrams and pictures to explain the history of Belgium and the neighborhoods. Plan for around 4 hours, instead of the listed 3.5 hours. The group size was large, about 10 people, so there were several traffic stops where the whole group won't cross the intersection at the same time. My one piece of constructive feedback would be that I would have appreciated a clarification that the drinks at the stop in Saint Gilles was not included. It’s not a big deal, however, they should have been more upfront about this before we ordered, because I probably would have skipped the drink.

From €33.00
