Wonderful tour - personalized and excellent! - Marijke (sp?)/Mary was a wonderful tour guide! Our team/train route ran late and because we were the only two guests, she waited 20 minutes for us. She tailored her discussion to share personal experiences, country-wide customs and in-depth info about Antwerp itself that answered all our questions. Mary also showed us places off the beaten path, including a super beautiful, quaint and cozy garden cafe, t’Hofke, down a quiet alley, and it was the most special meal we’ve had in Belgium yet. She helped make Antwerp our favorite city tour in Belgium! Highly recommend!

A must do in Antwerp - The Jewish Neighborhood Very interesting tour, great guide. - This was a great tour, Marc L. our guide was absolutely wonderful. He had extensive knowledge of the subject and was also very entertaining. We got a good insight into the customs and lives of the Orthodox Jews, as well as background information on the History of Judaism. This was a very interesting tour, which I highly reccommend.

Recommended! Fantastic tour with enthusiastic guide! - We had a fantastic tour of Antwerp. Our guide Luc was an enthusiastic storyteller and knew a lot about history. Very interesting and fun to listen to. The group was not large (8 people), so there was plenty of room for all kinds of questions for the guide.
