Excursion Culinary walk of antwerp tour at Antwerp

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Much has been written and said about Belgium’s most-known edible treats. And it’s true. But as iconically delicious as waffles and chocolates are, this country’s Top Tastes list encompasses so much more. As you explore Antwerp’s picturesque historic center on this small-group guided walk, your knowledgeable guide will do their utmost to introduce you to the full range of delicacies available along these streets, squares, and medieval lanes.

Providing insights on the traditions and ingredients involved, they’ll lead you to sampling stops at multiple on-the-go spots for bites of everything from pralines to fries, biscuits to teas, and yes, chocolates and waffles, too. The exact route, stops, and items tasted can vary based on proprietors’ whims and the Flemish weather – but over the three-plus hours of this excursion, there will be plenty to appreciate. There will also be the marvelous eye-candy of Antwerp’s landmark architecture to savor – from Grote Markt’s intricate detailed guild houses and ornate Brabo Fountain to cozily atmospheric Pie Alley (aka Vlaeykensgang), oozing charm and reached by means of a hidden arched doorway.

After all is said, seen, and tasted, accompany your guide on a 30-minute walk back to the pier or stay on awhile in the city center on your own to seek further mouthwatering treats and eye-opening sights.
