Had a great time with Etienne who had great knowledge of Jewish Antwerp. 2.5 hours flew by and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely recommend Etienne.
In spite of a freezing wind we had another heartwarming walk with Etienne, our third time already. This time we learned all sorts of interesting facts about the Jewish inhabitants of Antwerp, about the impressive central station and about diamonds. Etienne is like your favourite teacher who, sotto voce, always captures your attention and leaves you enriched with a new take on life, illustrated in vivo. We look forward to meeting Etienne for the very last walk he has to offer, next time we visit Antwerp. Perhaps our only regret is that he has but four walks on offer as spending time with Etienne really adds a special and unique flavour to your Antwerp stay.
Etienne has that great combination of knowledge, communication skills, candor, warmth and experience that made this tour so valuable. He only does private, not small groups. He is not Jewish, but his familiarity with the people and history of the Jewish Quarter is extensive. As Jews ourselves, we are not unfamiliar with some of the background, but Etienne shattered some of our preconceptions. In all, it was a very pleasant and educational time that we recommend highly.
We spent 3 interesting hours listening to Etienne stories and it was a real pleasure to discover Antwerp this way. We learnt a lot about the city’s history, gastronomy and culture. Thanks a lot Etienne for this wonderful visit.
