Overview of your Brussels tour

Antwerp dazzles with its beauty and history. It is a city with a very interesting past and an exciting present. Diamonds, medieval constructions, pearls of 19th century engineering. . . Mechelen, on the other hand, is a hidden gem of Flanders. A city that also oozes history, but without tourists or rush, where one can savor the authentic spirit of Flanders. In this tour, you discover both cities in one day. We use the train to move around, a comfortable, fast and efficient means of transport in Belgium.
