Docking in Antwerp is an experience in itself! Passengers disembark in Antwerp's oldest building: Het Steen. This 800-year-old castle is home to the City of Antwerp's official visitor centre. Visitors can find tourist info and souvenirs here, enjoy the view on the panoramic roof terrace, and follow the interactive experience trail 'The Antwerp Story'. 

At 350 metres, both river and sea cruises can moor at the pontoon. It sometimes rains in Belgium, but thanks to the canopy, visitors always stay dry. The cruise terminal can accommodate 400 passengers at a time.

Everything within walking and cycling distance

From Het Steen it is just a few minutes' walk to the Grote Markt, the beating heart of the Historical Centre and a great location to explore the rest of the city. In Antwerp, almost all major shopping streets, museums and attractions are within cycling or walking distance.
