Antwerp is a popular destination and one of Belgium’s most beautiful cities. It offers many exciting activities and sights and it’s ideal for all types of travellers. If you’re arriving in Antwerp by plane, you can easily get from Anterp Airport to the city by taxi, bus, or train.
A taxi from Antwerp Airport to the city centre is the quickest and most convenient choice, ideal for travellers who wish to avoid the hassle and enjoy a stress-free ride to their accommodation. You can take a local taxi from the rank outside the airport or pre-book your transfer to skip the line and save time. The ride takes about 20 minutes in light traffic and you can expect to pay from €20-25 for a standard local cab.
If you’re travelling on a budget, you can use public transportation instead. A single ticket for both the bus and the train costs €2.50 per traveller, so it’s ideal if you don’t wish to spend much on transportation. Between the two, the bus is the better option; you can take bus lines 33 and 181 and reach the city centre in about 1 hour. The trip by train is shorter but the closest train station to the airport is Mortsel; it’s located 1 km away, which means you either need to walk or pay for additional transportation to get there. You can evaluate all options and choose whichever best matches your needs and budget.
