IN SEARCH OF THE RED STAR LINE: migration of all times

For over 2 million emigrants from all over Europe the buildings of the Red Star Line on the Antwerp ‘Het Eilandje’ were the beginning of a new life in America.

On this tour you walk past old warehouses, bollards where the ocean ships moored and old harbour sheds.

Your final destination is the magnificent Red Star Line Museum, which certainly is worth visiting.

Meanwhile your guide tells the story of the ups and downs of the passengers during their journey through Europe, their stay in Antwerp, their voyage  across the ocean and their experience in the New World
