This was my second tour with Andrea. I was very happy to have the opportunity to be introduced to Antwerp by her! She is so knowledgeable about the history and culture of the city. Andrea is very warm and friendly, and she is glad to adjust the itinerary when it’s time for a coffee and a bite to eat. I learned so much, and the time flew by.

Andrea was great and made our day fantastic from the beginning to the end. She was very personable and her knowledge of the city, its people and history where very impressive. She made sure that we saw everything we wanted to see from the Diamond district to the beautiful Cathedral of Antwerp. Andrea also took us to an amazing Chocolate shop and at the end of the day we had some great Belgium Waffles. We just recommended Andrea to good friends who plan to book a tour with within the next two weeks.

We met Andrea at the train station in Antwerp and we began our tour of the city. We started in the diamond district and continued from there. The highlight of the tour was the Cathedral where we were able to view 3 amazing Rubens paintings. The Cathedral by itself is amazing but the artwork makes this a must see. She showed us all about the history of Antwerp and how the city was so important….lots to see and having a guide made it easier to see the real highlights! Highly Recommend this tour!
