Andreas had a wealth of information to share and took me to a few places I would never have found on my own! I very much enjoyed the tour. I booked 3 hours and that felt sufficient.

Easter in Antwerp

Had a great day with Ludmilla in Antwerp! I highly recommend spending a day here, and the best way is with a local, private guide. Then you can customize your own trip!!!

Excellent tour

Tinne was a very knowledgeable guide and gave us some very interesting information about Antwerp and its history. She was prompt and also gave us some extra time as well. I highly recommend this experience if you only have a short time in the city and want a comprehensive overview of the city and its history.
