Tour description

Do you want to discover Antwerp like a local?

 

Hey, I'm Nikita, a local from Antwerp. I live right in the heart of the seamen's district. With this tour, I want to share the rich history of Antwerp with you through the eyes of a local.

On this unique free walking tour, I’ll invite you to look at all the little details Antwerp has to offer. From Het Steen to the MAS, you’ll wander through hidden alleys, along ancient city walls, and visit places where stories and legends still live. 

Although I'm not a historian, I'm very passionate about all the legends and events that took place here. Antwerp is still a very cultural hub, and I can tell you a lot about the things you can do here as a tourist. 

Hope to meet you soon!
Nikita
