Brussels city card? Certainly very convenient! I bought two, one for me and one for my husband, and it was worth it. We visited several museums without having to pay and the convenience of taking the tram, bus and metro. Just remember that to activate it you only have to go to one of the tourist info points for the first time (we went to Grand Piacenza) and then for the other days, to use the public transport, you have to go to the machines that are in the various stations and enter your identification code and from there you will generate your tickets. On the other hand, for museums it is worth activating it only the first time!

Super nice on the first day we visited 3 museums (choco story, comic museum, autoworld), which thanks to getyourguide we had included. The second we visited the city, the monuments, the statues. In getyourguide for 24h we had transport, museums and various discounts in pubs and shops included in €37/pp. Highly recommended, without the card we would have paid €15/pp per museum + €7.50/pp for daily transport. The only flaw is that you have to go and collect it at the info point (BIP), but it is located in an excellent position, very close to the station (Gare Central).

All very nice and comfortable. The fact that you have 72 hours available to be able to visit so many museums is very convenient, you are able to organize yourself well. Obviously in three days you can't see all the museums available but I, for example, have seen 8 of them all interesting and beautiful. And between one museum and another one could appreciate the beauty of the city and its monuments.

Great value for money! Had access to both main attractions and all transportation. The good thing was that we activate the card in the afternoon, so we had access until the afternoon 2 days after when we were leaving.

Very good, the comments of the audio guide are nice and interesting.
