Baroque City
Walk in Rubens' footsteps
Antwerp simply breathes baroque
In a city that has been home to masters like Rubens, Van Dyck, Jordaens and dozens of other baroque painters, the baroque atmosphere is there to stay..
We’ll gladly take you on a trip along places that remind us of the masters from the past. In this way the times of Rubens, Van Dyck, Jordaens, Teniers and so many others is brought to life again. On our way we pass the majestic church of Saint Carl Borromee and in the mean time you will discover gems of the rediscovery of baroque art at the end of the 19th century, which has left its traces in quite some places in town, sometimes where you least expect them.
Of course the baroque feeling hasn’t died. Periods of quiet rest and periods of abundance follow one another continuously. That’s why we will also show you more modern examples of a baroque character.

A basic 2 hour walk costs € 15 per person, with a minimum of € 150. The price for an extended walk (3 hours) is € 20 with a minimum of € 200. Groups of more than 20 participants will be divided over different guides.
The standard walk takes about 2 hours, without a pause. If you have more time, or simply want to stay a little longer in these surroundings, we have a number of desserts or extra options for you.
You could combine the walk with a visit to the Charles Borromeo Church or to the chapel in which Rubens is buried (entrance fee).
Of course we can also combine the walk with a visit to one of the numerous Antwerp bars.
The walk will then take 3 hours.
