Tulips and Windmills River Cruise

All the things that come to mind when you think of the Netherlands and Belgium – countless colorful canals, whimsical windmills, vibrant tulips, the art of Rubens and Rembrandt, rich maritime history – are yours to experience in all their real-life glory.

This perfectly paced springtime cruise takes you to the historic windmills of Kinderdijk, the Belgian treasure of Bruges, the 70-acre Keukenhof Gardens with more than seven million flowers, and museums rich in art by the famed Dutch Masters. While visiting Enkhuizen and Hoorn, you’ll discover the impressive maritime history of days gone by. Stroll through cosmopolitan Amsterdam and trendy Antwerp, and learn about Dutch art, WWII history, and the Netherlands’ struggle against the sea on three guided museum visits.

All along the way, you’ll indulge in the famous treats of the region. Sample delicate, handmade Belgian chocolates that are among the finest in the world. Feast on warm waffles with berries and cream. Taste delicious cheeses along with hearty beer – all while savoring the storybook atmosphere of some of Europe’s most charming towns.
