Going underground ...

Yes, Antwerpen has a metro / subway Bus, tram, metro Review

Though only three (actually two-and-a-halve) metroline, the system that runs partly underground in Antwerpen is a swift and efficient means of transport to certain destinations. Check on the maps near all entrances.

Walk and for longer distances take the tram Bus, tram, metro Review

Antwerpen centre can be done on foot, but the various interesting attractions outside the centre can be reached by trams or busses. The city has a very good public transport system that reaches the furthest corners and suburbs.

Getting there by car and parking-tips Car, motorhome, caravan Review

Unlike many equally large towns, Antwerpen can be visited by car. The amount of parkingspace in the centre is good and the parking fee is even amazingly low. Take for example the parking facilities under the old docks and fishery halls on Antwerpen cays (follw P - "Kade"). Here often is space and with 100 metres you are on the Grote Markt (Big Market square).
Driving your car through Antwerpen is not recommendable as in many places the old roads excist of 'kinderkopjes' (rounded stones) that will tremble your car apart (-:

Boattrips leave from the river near "Het Steen" - Antwerp

Antwerpen is of course first a harbour-town Boat, cruise ship Review

Antwerpen is one of the busiest harbours in the world. Therefor entering by boat, could be a great way of visiting the town. However, not many regular tourists will arrive in Antwerpen by boat.
For those who want to discover the huge harbour terraines, from the cays near the "Steen"-castle (Nautical Museum) boatttrips leave regularly and all year around.

Central Station Antwerpen ... let's get into town! - Antwerp

Central Station Antwerpen ... let's get into town!

Getting there by Belgian Rail Train Review

Antwerpen is a town that is situated on the splitting of two mayor railways leading from The Netherlands into Flanders and towards Brussel. The city is situated as well on the HSL (High Speed Line) from Amsterdam to Paris and thus can be easily reached by train. The central station is a great building, welcoming everyone in the grandeur of most Antwerpen buildings.
