We pre booked this tour and met Luc by the statue in the Grote Market. He was very informative about Antwerp having been born and raised in the city. He made the tour both fun and interesting, adding in a little competition for us to take part in. He gave recommendations for places to visit and eat/drink. We all really enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend 👌
