Interesting, entertaining and highly recommended

Christina was great! I had booked the English speaking tour for 4 people. In addition, 2 other people were present on site. Since we all came from Germany, she simply made the tour in German. We saw many interesting places and were very pleasantly explained. The leader is very well prepared for the group. TOP! I can recommend this tour to everyone, but you should do it at the beginning of your stay in Antwerp, because you want to take a look at some of the highlights afterwards.

Great city tour

The tour of historic Antwerp was 100 percent worth it. The tour guide reported very interestingly and showed us great buildings and corners. His English was very easy to understand and he was very committed. I can only recommend it to everyone. By the way, we registered with a group of 9 people, 4 more were added. The group size was good.
