To finish the weekend we made a special arrangement to show you Antwerp from a bird’s eye view. We’ll await you at the Observatory Schoenmarkt 35 2000 Antwerpen between 9AM-10AM (only).

If afterwards you have some time left, we can guide you to the Carolus Borromeus (RUBENS-church), the Stadsfeestzaal …  

It is impossible to drive out of Antwerp on a Monday-morning due to the heavy traffic congestion of the rush hour!  You have to wait till after 11am.
