Sample Itinerary

Arrival at Brussels Airport. Your private driver will welcome you and escort you to Antwerp city. 

Check in to your charming hotel and the rest of the day is yours to discover the city on your own or with a local guide. Antwerp is Belgium’s second city, one of the world’s major seaports and cradle of diamond and fashion. It has long been a powerful magnet for everyone from fashion moguls and club queens to art lovers and diamond dealers. 

In the mid-16th century, it was one of Europe’s most important cities and home to baroque superstar painter Pieter Paul Rubens. Despite many historical works thereafter, and severe WWII bombing, Antwerp retains an intriguing medieval heart with plenty of café-filled cobbled lanes, a riverside fortress and a truly impressive cathedral

Today, however, Antwerp’s top drawcards are its vibrant fashion and entertainment scene, along with its startling architectural and cultural contrasts.
