A traditional brunch like this has gone out of style a bit which I think is a real shame. Most places have adapted a more international or even American style with their breakfasts and brunches till the point that it's the same breakfast as in any other country. My goal is to bring the local stuff back. Make it Belgian and authentic again, like I know from my childhood. So if you'd like to try the local stuff and go authentic, then come and join us.

And various styles: hoppy, sour and fruity, and mildly sweet. It's an unexpected conclusion. Listen, walk and taste. To stimulate your curiosity, the following are a few peculiar but facts. Thanks to the French Revolution, we can enjoy Trappist beer from Westmalle! Thanks to the losers of the local elections, Belgium has a wide range of high-quality beers! In each pub, we try something different. Advice will be given by the guide and pub owner in each case. But the choice is yours!

Andrea did a great job...

Andrea did a great job showing us Antwerp, including some of the more landmark places some hidden gems. He was flexible to adjust the agenda based on our specific interests. My only complaint is that the travel company that hired Andrea failed to pass along our requests prior to the tour. Andrea did a wonderful job adjusting on the fly, so there is no complaint against him. However the communication with the tour agency was poor.

The walking tour of Antwerp’s Old Town was superb. George, our tour guide, gave us a thorough history of Antwerp through the ages. He also made sure that my husband and I were able to keep up with the group. I would highly recommend this tour to others.

Our guide Luc N. was completely awesome. Honestly I had low expectations but our guide Luc made all the difference and was one of best experiences we've had with any guide, his general knowledge of Antwerp, history and many stories & his wonderful sense of humor. I thought the tour was underpriced because we definitely received more than we expected from this experience, great value.

Great overview of the city, especially when time is limited!

Celine was our guide and she was great! There was some confusion when I booked this tour as they said the guide would speak English. It was, however, a Dutch tour! Luckily for me, Celine translated some important things (and so did one of the fellow tour members) and some Dutch words are similar to German, which I speak. All tours are only in one language, fyi. I still learned a lot and it was a fun tour!

Our tour guide was Leo. His tour was fantastic. We enjoyed the narrative of the city history mixed with his personal favorites and anecdotes. We saw a lot on our tour with a good mix of views from the tuk tuk and get out for a closer look. Getting in and out of the tuk tuk was a bit difficult for my senior mother, but a little help and gentle patience made for a really wonderful day. Thank you, Leo!

Knowledge and personal experience madd for a great experience

Our guide was Luc B., and even now, when I tell people about our day trips, I find myself raving about him. His knowledge, his voice, his kindness, his reverence, and his love of his City were refreshing. Touring with him inspired us to use this company in Brussels and Ghent as well.
