Coming to Antwerp with your own bike

Are you planning to arrive in Antwerp with your own bicycle? That's a wise move, because the bicycle infrastructure in and around the city has improved remarkably in recent years. Thanks to the impressive bicycle freeways, getting to the city is very quick and smooth, and eye-catching bicycle bridges provide unobstructed passage  over watercourses and motorways. Be sure to hang saddlebags on your bike, because you'll always find something nice to buy in Antwerp's shops. And, of course, treating yourself to an ice cream, a beer or Antwerp chocolate is encouraged. There is a relaxing cycle route to Antwerp and back going in every direction. 

With the bicycle through the city

Do you hope to visit different destinations in Antwerp by bike rather than on foot? Then the network of 300 stations for Velo share bikes across the city are sure to get you anywhere in town. The red-white Velo bikes have become a mainstay of the cityscape. Thousands of people use them every day, young and old alike. These sturdy bikes are ideal for short trips from A to B. At your destination, simply return the bike to a Velo station.  Renting a Velo is really easy. 

Rental bikes for longer journeys

Do you fancy a longer cycle tour in and around Antwerp and you don't have your own bike? In Antwerp, you can rent very comfortable bicycles that are perfect for half-day or full-day cycling tours. There are plenty of bicycle rental options both in the historic centre and in the vicinity of the Central Station. A tour around the port to marvel at the largest ships and locks or to see the beautiful architecture of the Zurenborg quarter is all possible. 

Cruising on an electric share scooter

Would you like to get around Antwerp in an even more relaxed way? With a scooter, you simply cruise comfortably through the city without getting fatigued. Electric scooters are manoeuvrable, easy to park and environmentally friendly. In Antwerp, you will find almost 3,000 shared scooters from three different providers. The spots where you can return your shared scooter are clearly marked in the public space. Renting a shared scooter is really easy.
