Free tour of the city of Antwerp, where you will discover why it is the city of diamonds, fashion and the "Prince of Antwerp", Rubens. In addition to visiting the most prominent places in the city, we will see alleys hidden for centuries.
The city that longs to be the capital of Belgium, maintains in the so-called heart of Europe one of the most important ports, both in Europe and in the world. The history of the port of Antwerp goes back to the time of Napoleon, who ordered the construction of its first dock, after several interludes today it is the protagonist of one of the important economic factors of the city and the country. This port city made the diamond market flourish, this trade that dates back to the 15th century and in which today approximately 80% of the world's rough diamond circulates. So, if we are looking to buy this precious stone so highly valued by society, we have come to the right place and we will have an entire neighborhood to shine our eyes. But always a good jewel has to go with an outfit that goes with it. And it is there that the famous international designers enter the scene ¨The Antwerp Six¨. We will find ourselves in a strategic point of the city, very close to the train station, next to the Opera Ballet in Plaats Teniers at the foot of the sculpture of this Flemish painter.
