Reviews
Luc was a very dynamic and knowledgeable tourist guide. He made the experience cool and very interesting. I definitively would recommend this tour.

Very recommended. Although it was rainy, our tour guide did a very good job! We went through the whole city and he told us a lot of interesting stories and facts. I really enjoyed it!

Luc was an amazing guide! The tour took us to parts of the city we would’ve glossed over and walked by without thinking. I would definitely recommend booking at the start of your trip because he gave great tips on others things to see in the city.

We did the free walking tour with Beren in Antwerp and it was amazing! We got a lot of information and had lots of fun! Can recommend it a 100% to everyone who wants to discover Antwerp!
