Description
Join MG City Tours for a relaxed guided bike tour through Antwerp's most important landmarks, historic districts and hidden gems. By bike, you'll cover more ground than on a traditional walking tour while still experiencing the city up close.
Meet your guide, Marc Geerts, at Antwerp Central Station and begin your journey through one of Belgium's most fascinating cities. Your first stop is the magnificent Central Station, often ranked among the most beautiful railway stations in the world.
From there, cycle towards the MAS Museum, Antwerp's iconic waterfront landmark and a symbol of the city's long connection with international trade and the River Schelde.
Continue to Het Steen, the oldest building in Antwerp, where you'll discover how the city was founded and developed into one of Europe's most important trading centres.
Next, explore the historic Grote Markt, surrounded by impressive guild houses, the City Hall and the famous Brabo Fountain. Here, you'll hear the stories and legends that helped shape Antwerp's identity.
The tour then takes you through Antwerp's world famous Diamond District and Jewish Quarter, two neighbourhoods that continue to play a vital role in the global diamond trade.
Along the way, you'll also pass several additional highlights including the Red Star Line Museum, Felix Warehouse, Schelde Free Monument, the Royal Museum of Fine Arts (KMSKA) and the elegant Zurenborg district, known for its beautiful Belle Époque architecture and some of the most impressive residential streets in Belgium.
Throughout the tour, your local guide shares stories about Antwerp's history, harbour, architecture, trade, culture and daily life. This experience is perfect for visitors who want to discover both the city's famous attractions and lesser known treasures in an active and enjoyable way.
