Etienne is een lopende Antwerpen encyclopedie die gepassioneerd verteld over het verleden en hedendaagse Antwerpen en je ook vele prachtige plekjes laat ontdekken. Wij hebben genoten van de wandeling die geen moment verveelde. Etienne bedankt voor Uw enthousiasme en de mooie verhalen en anekdotes. Groet Harold en Angela van Dijk.Beste van Antwerpen met Etienne.

Etienne heeft me veel verteld wat ik nog niet wist over de architectuur van het station en de geschiedenis van de joodse buurt en zijn vroegere en huidige bewoners. Hij heeft veel kennis paraat en paste het ter plekke aan al naar gelang mijn eigen kennis. Heel fijn. Het was behalve een zeer interessante wandeling ook een heel gezellige. Van harte aanbevolen ! Dank je wel Etienne wat een interesante fijne tour!

Wir hatten eine Tour durch das jüdische Viertel und das Diamantenviertel mit Etienne gebucht. Sein Detail Wissen zum Zentralbahnhof, aber auch allen Informationen zur jüdischen Gemeinde, ihrer Geschichte und ihre Eigenheiten war überragend. Er baute die Tour didaktisch ausgezeichnet auf und machte mit seiner Herzlichkeit diese sehr persönliche und überaus lehrreiche Führung zu einem Erlebnis. Wunderbar, vielen Dank, Étienne. Eine absolute Empfehlung! We had booked a tour of the Jewish quarter and the diamond quarter with Etienne. His detailed knowledge of the central station, but also all the information about the Jewish community, its history and its peculiarities was outstanding. He built the tour didactically excellently and made this very personal and extremely instructive tour an experience with his warmth. Wonderful, thank you, Étienne. An absolute recommendationFantastic tour through the jewish quarter

Wir hatten eine super informative Führung mit Etienne durch das jüdische Viertel. Er hat uns eine Menge über das jüdische Leben, deren Sitten und Gebräuche erzählt und hat all unsere Fragen mit viel Wissen und Humor beantwortet. Das war ein toller Vormittag in Antwerpen. 😀 Grüsse StephanieHinter die Kulissen geschaut

We had an amazing day with Etienne learning about the history and current state of Jewish life in Antwerp. For someone who is not Jewish, he is very knowledgeable about the culture and traditions, and does an excellent job of tailoring the tour towards the group. He was excellent to work with in terms of figuring out logistics as we were arriving from the cruise port in Zeebrugge for the day. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see a different side of Antwerp!An excellent & educational day in Antwerp
