“Would definitely recommend!”
My friends and I had an amazing time on our tour with Joris. He was very knowledgeable and he made our tour super fun with his friendly vibes and cool stories about the city. Plus, his local recommendations were spot-on.

“Authentic, relaxed and informative “
I had a great tour together with my girlfriend and her brother. They are from the Netherlands, I am from Antwerp. I learned to see my city in a new way and learned many nice littler things.
Joris builds up the tour in a nice way and is very relaxed. Great experience!

“Our guide, Shabnam, was fantastic.“
She made us travel through time, starting from 1800’s railway station back all the way into the middle ages and the founding myth and first settlers of Antwerp in 12th century . I appreciated her sharing with us her favorite spots in Antwerp (my preferred cinema, chocolate store etc): she made us feel at home for a few hours in Antwerp. I highly recommend Shabnam’s tours.
