Holland and Belgium Springtime River Cruise

Savor springtime in Holland and Belgium with a cruise that highlights the blooming Dutch tulip fields. Relax as you make your way along seemingly endless fields of vibrant flowers and iconic windmills.

Arrive today in Amsterdam,* the 800-year-old capital of the Netherlands. As arrival times will vary, there is no scheduled sightseeing today. For those arriving earlier in the day, you may relax in the ship’s lounge and enjoy refreshments until your cabin is ready in the late afternoon. You may also consider visiting one of Amsterdam's famed museums, such as the Van Gogh Museum** or the Anne Frank House.** Tonight, join your fellow travelers for a welcome reception onboard your ship, savoring a cocktail and dinner as you toast to the journey ahead.

See Amsterdam the way it’s truly meant to be seen – by canal. On your private boat, cruise under sloping bridges and pass by quintessential Dutch houses before having the opportunity to explore this iconic city on your own. This afternoon, head to the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens, featuring acres of tranquil ponds, shaded paths, and more than 7 million tulips and other flowers on exhibit. This evening, your ship leaves Amsterdam.

Arrive in Arnhem, a city known for its rich cultural heritage and history. With a full day to explore, Arnhem is yours to discover. Join your Tour Manager for a city walk, delve into local history at a WWII museum,*** or pave your own way in the city. Perhaps you'll join an optional morning tour to the Airborne Museum to learn about the Battle of Arnhem. After lunch, you may consider opting for an afternoon visit to the Kröller-Müller Museum, which holds the second-largest Van Gogh collection in the world. Then this evening, pass by lovely Dutch scenery as your journey continues.
