The Experience

The Old Town, on a Budget

With more than 800 reviews, this is the most-booked walking tour in Antwerp. A volunteer guide meets you at Het Steen, the medieval castle on the Scheldt, and leads you through the oldest part of the city for two hours.

Expect Roman and medieval history, the story of Antwerp's beginnings and the streets of the old centre, with suggestions for bars, restaurants and museums along the way.

You pay only a small booking fee online. At the end, you tip the guide what you think the tour was worth.

The honest version

Excellent value and consistently well reviewed. It covers the medieval centre rather than Rubens: the Rubens House is about 15 minutes' walk east of the Grote Markt, so visit it afterwards.
