Antwerp Diamond nd Jewish district

Henry_K, Jul 2026

Very informative tour through the Jewish and Diamond district. Very knowledgeable guide. Really enjoyed it

More Jewish history than diamonds

Paul_M, May 2026

Thoroughly enjoyed learning all the history the guide provided. He was engaging and easy to listen to!

Ari is great.

Roxanne_S, May 2026

Ari Apteker was an excellent guide! He was funny and very knowledgeable. He gets a 5, totally. I just think his tours need more than 2 hours because he is so easy to listen to and Viator should schedule him for longer tours. Thanks Ari!

Not much Jewish flow but a good tour with the lovely Yael

Joanna_D, May 2026

Communication re meeting point and care was brilliant except Yael’s English was a little weak and the information was very limited. The information didn’t flow and I felt that we would have visited more Jewish sites and seen a little more with some more stories. But overall it’s was a lovely tour and a nice group and Yael was sweet and friendly.

Informative look at the history of the Jewish people of Antwerp

Veronica_L, Apr 2026

The guide was very knowledgeable, he was able to provide lots of historical context to the vibrant Jewish community and culture of those residing in Antwerp

Tour of Diamond District and Jewish District

nancy_s, Sep 2024

Tina provided an excellent overview of the history of the Diamond District and thorough tour of the Diamond District and the Jewish areas surrounding the Diamond District. I was able to enter the Portuguese Synagogue during the tour and we visited two Kosher bakeries and a few Judaic shoos. Tina is an excellent and informative guide. I really enjoyed this tour.

Three Stops including the Jewish Quarter

Lorys_S, Jul 2024

This tour included three stops: the railroad station, the diamond district and the Jewish quarter. The first part of the tour was certainly not a Jewish tour as compared to the end. We visited a community center, two bakeries, a deli, a Judaica store and a Holocaust monument. Out of the 10 of us, we (two couples) were the only Jewish people who knew more than the guide. We were happy to relate some honest information on our laws and customs. The guide was very nice and understanding; I believe she realized she was out of her element by reading her notes from a book.

Informative and well worth the time.

Seeing the architecture of the Central Station. The knowledge of our tour leader. Observing the old world conditions and culture being followed by the ultra orthodox.
