ABOUT US

Our Mission

Our mission is to help people enjoy their visit and stay in Brussels. Additionally, we are an outlet for the most enthusiastic Brussels residents of all nationalities with in-depth knowledge of areas of the city to share their knowledge with those who need it. Brussels is the heart of Europe and Brussels Greeters is the volunteer welcome committee for the heart of Europe!   

Our History

Brussels Greeters was founded based on similar concepts in New York City and Chicago. The idea is to promote visits to all areas of the city of Brussels!  Brussels is not the easiest city to navigate, partially due to language issues e.g. the metro is set up with names of destinations in two French and Flemish which can be confusing for a newcomer and sprawled out layout of the city.  However, with the help of Brussels Greeters, you can get to know Brussels easily!
