      Great walking tour with lots of history

      Amy_B, Sep 2026
      Excellent tour of Mechelen with a lot of history. The guide was super, very friendly and engaging, with a fun "time travel machine" angle. He was really knowledgable - he has even done his own research in the archives to find out more about the history of Mechelen and his family. We had already stayed in Mechelen a few days but still saw new places and learnt a lot about the city and history. It's a free tour and the guide relies on tips, the payment on viator is just the booking fee, so remember to take cash with you on the tour!
