We walk about 3.3 kilometres over 4.5 hours. Please dress appropriately for the weather and for walking, with comfortable shoes. The tour is dense and the walking can be brisk.
Tips for your guide are not included. We tip the places visited, but feel free to tip them as well if you really enjoyed the stop, or make purchases of their products, or even come back to see them again or recommend them!
Although we eat on the tour, it is mostly snacks and the tour starts when you may already be hungry. Since we also drink a lot, we recommend not coming on an empty stomach. The tastings are meant to complement the beer, but unlike our other tours, we have more snacks than a meal and really focus on beer, history and pairings.
