Mechelen Historic Walking Tour with Local Guide
Away from the city…
Jolan was a great guide. He was knowledgeable and passionate about the city. If you are looking for a getaway from the city, Mechelen is a short trip from Brussels.

Mechelen Self-Guided Detective Murder Mystery Game
Murder game as a light-hearted exploration of the city
cool way to explore the city. You'll get to places you wouldn't have discovered otherwise. The game was an afterthought for us but still fun to do.

Day Trip to Mechelen & Leuven: Two Cities, One Great Experience
Two quaint towns with lots of beauty
My guide was Mathias. He contacted me the day before the trip to confirm some details and scheduled a meeting point. He arrived on time and greeted me with a friendly smile and handshake. He took me through the day and we set off on our journey. He shared a lot of history on the towns, sights and country. He also shared a bit about himself and made me feel very comfortable. It’s a lot of walking but the towns are well worth the visit. I would highly recommend this tour and the same guide.
