By 'Velo' (hire bike)

If you use an Antwerpen Velo hire bike to come to DIVA, you’ll find a station near the Steen (station 059). On the other side of the Suikerrui, there is also a station on the Grote Markt (Wisselstraat, station 060).

By train, tram or bus

The Suikerrui is close to the Grote Markt and Groenplaats. It is easy to reach by tram or bus. See www.delijn.be for the most up-to-date information.

The rail network is well connected with bus and tram routes. If you are coming to DIVA from the Ghent direction, take the train to Antwerpen-Zuid (Antwerp South) station. From other directions you would do best to get off at Antwerpen-Centraal (Central Station).
