How much does a trip to Antwerp cost?
In Antwerp your bed and your restaurant habit drive almost the whole number — the city is walkable enough that transport barely registers. Set your trip below for an honest estimate: a range, not a fake-precise total, across lodging, food, getting around and museums. Two things sit outside the model — Belgian VAT is already inside every price you will see, and the city adds a tourist tax of €3.20 per person per night (excluding VAT) on top of your accommodation.
