What participants say about this tour

Group listens to guide explain the inside of the central station

We had an excellent walk through beautiful Antwerp with expert guide Micheline. I have been coming to Antwerp for years. Still, the expert and enthusiastic explanation of Antwerp’s history and development was very rewarding. I highly recommend it!

It was the best spontaneous decision for the day! Walking with a friendly professional guide was a pure pleasure!
