Wander the picture-perfect streets of medieval towns, enjoy magnificent Gothic architecture and discover the iconic windmills of a bygone age. 

Our cruise takes us through the heart of our Western European neighbours, tracing a rich and diverse cultural heritage through their fascinating waterways. We start in Amsterdam's canal-laced heart exploring its charming streets and exceptional art on a glass-topped canal cruise. We then travel through the Netherlands, stopping at Rotterdam and Kinderdijk where you can witness a series of windmills - the iconic symbol of the Netherlands. In Belgium, we visit the medieval towns of Burges and Ghent for a guided tour through the narrow, cobbled streets and then onto Antwerp to see the captivating Grote Markt. On our journey towards Germany, we stop in Arnhem, where you have the choice of the Airborne Museum at Oosterbeek or the lost garden of Het Loo Palace, before finishing in historic Cologne for a guided tour. This holiday is ideal for travellers who are passionate about art, interesting architecture and history.
