A day at the Brussels Winter Wonders: Sainte-Catherine’s chalets, the Grand-Place Christmas tree and light show.

Every winter, Brussels lights up for Plaisirs d’Hiver (Winter Wonders), one of the great Christmas events in Belgium. Chalets line the streets from the Bourse to Place Sainte-Catherine and the Marché aux Poissons, among a big wheel, merry-go-rounds and the scent of waffles and mulled wine. On the Grand-Place, the large Christmas tree and the sound and light show, held at nightfall, make the gilded façades sparkle. Your group enjoys a reserved lunch in the warm, a short guided tour and free time at its own pace. The return is in the evening, without fatigue.
