  Yolanda was our guide, Mechelen born from many generations and knows the city inside out. He gad a wonderful personality and a charisma that would engage and absorb you fully using an ingenious time machine! No secrets shared here, you just have to experience it for yourself.

  I live in Mechelen for six months and finally wanted to get to know the city better. I didn't expect this... What a fantastic city! Mechelen’s impressive history was given a playful look and we received several recommendations for local restaurants, concerts, events and so on. I've learned an enormous amount from this. Thank you so much!! Favorite stop: the story about the nuns’ toilet 🤭 Jolan is a vessel full of knowledge and he brings the history of Mechelen to life!

  This tour honestly felt more like a relaxed walk with a knowledgeable local than a formal guided experience, which I really appreciated. Jolan has a very natural way of explaining things — nothing felt scripted or overly rehearsed. Instead of overwhelming you with information, he shares stories and context that actually stick with you. You can tell he knows the history well, but also knows how to make it relatable. There were a few moments where we just paused, looked around, and he pointed out small details or told little anecdotes that made the place feel alive. Those were probably my favorite parts. I also liked that the group dynamic felt easy and informal. You could ask questions at any time without feeling awkward, and the whole experience felt quite personal. If you’re the kind of person who prefers something genuine over something polished and “touristy,” this is a really good choice.

  I have been on a walking tour of Mechelen once before. But this one with Jolan made me see Mechelen with new eyes. He has a unique and fun way of taking his guests through the centuries and is able to combine a great story with a lot of good facts. It was a cold wintry day, when we did the tour with him, but there was never a dull moment. His narrative made the tour absolutely worthwhile. This tour with Jolan from Urban Insight is very highly recommended if you really want to get to know the city.
