Challenge tour in the heart of Brussels (free!)

A challenge tour to discover hidden locations and secret gems in Brussels! Some challenges are created by the DJEO team, others by people living in Brussels. Go see what locals are up to in the DJEO app. 

What's on the tour?

The tour takes you around the most spectacular places Brussels has to offer, while simultaneously offering fun, weird, spectacular, interesting challenges. You’ll learn about Brussels and create everlasting memories

Challenges include:
  • making a wish while rubbing a statue’s arm (here’s why)
  • weird symmetrical jumping
  • planking (2011 called, they want their fad back)
  • jumping like Mario 
  • singing your heart out in the central square
  • upside down bike riding
  • sitting on a bench in the coolest way ever
  • loving or hating McDonalds
  • balancing on copper beams
  • … So much more!

You can do as many or as little challenges as you want. The only rule is that that you have fun and upload video’s of your attempts to the DJEO app [Android] or [iOS]!

Who is it for?

DJEO is made for everyone who enjoys traveling to be more interactive. Travel has changed! It’s for those people who enjoy a unique way to get around a city and endulge in the local culture.

It’s also a great way to visit a place or city on a budget since it’s 100% free! As of writing (April 2022) we have no in-app purchases or ads in the app. 

Not just passively taking photographs but really interacting with your surroundings.
