Self-guided walking tour for Antwerp

Hello. I have had had real good luck finding walking tours of Brussels, Ghent and Bruges online but have not been able to find one on Antwerp. Would anyone know of or have a walking tour that they could point me to?

I don't know where you would find walking tours online, but you can get information from the tourist office; at www.antwerpen.be. Antwerp is an easy city to walk; anything in particular you are interested in?

Or try this site

When we were in Antwerp a few years back, we took a most interesting walking tour guided by a retired diamond cutter. The tour left the main tourist office and covered a lot of the back streets, courtyards, and buildings in the old quarter. Highly recommended.

I also had trouble finding a suggested tour on line. The tourist office seems to want to sell you their brochures when you get there.

We own a guidebook with walking tours of Flemish cities including Antwerp written by a friend who lives in Brussels, and it looks as though the old city is full of beautiful buildings.
By the way, in addition to Brussels, Ghent and Bruges, our friend recommends seeing Mechelen
