5.00Sincere thanks for the wonderful guided tour of Antwerp. The guide Lud.d was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fascinating stories that gave the city a special character. The tour was not only informative but also very enjoyable, as we learned many historical and cultural facts as well as lesser-known local details. You could truly feel the passion for the city and the desire to share it with visitors. Highly recommended! Jože and Mateja Kastelic

5.00Luc D., despite the cold, gave an energetic, humorous tour. Some details overlapped with the historic day tour, but that didn't bother. Highly recommended
We would do it again

5.00What a fun tour! The guide spoke excellent beautiful English and had really nice stories to tell. It didn't seem rehearsed at all, but really out of interest. Highly recommended!

5.00Luc D. is a very friendly and funny tour guide. We learned lots of interesting facts about Antwerp that I couldn't find in any guidebook. There was something for everyone. The length of the tour was also perfect; I could have listened to Luc for another two hours because everything was so interesting. I can highly recommend this tour with Luc D. to everyone.
Very nice tour

5.00Luc D. was a great guide. He provided us with some great stories about the city and the whole tour went by like a breeze. The tour does include a short walk through the red light district. Very safe but just be aware of it if you are going with younger kids.
Very enjoyable and amusing side of Antwerp

5.00Flip was an extremely experienced and knowledgeable guide. He made it fun with his stories and legends, it was really interesting and amusing, despite the damp weather. We saw parts of Antwerp that we normally wouldn't have seen and learnt interesting facts. Would highly recommend as an alternative side to Antwerp
