Overview

On our guided tour you will learn the true importance of Belgian comics on the international scene, and which schools and authors have made their fame possible. You will learn about the "clear line" that is talked about so much in Franco-Belgian comics, and you will discover many of the murals that have been dedicated to the ninth art in the heart of Belgium.

This tour is designed both for people who do not know anything about comics and for those who are more familiar with this art.

As if that were not enough, in addition to the murals, you will see Tintin's house (before he moved to Moulinsart castle) and the statue hidden in plain sight of The Smurfs. You will also discover new places in the center of Brussels that are not included in other guided tours, along with some of the shops where you can buy Belgian comics in your native language.

Come and enjoy the national comic with Curiositas Mundus!
