CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

IJmuiden
A quiet Dutch port with open skies and sea views, IJmuiden is the gateway to the rich heart of Amsterdam. Travel inland to discover the city’s iconic canals, elegant Golden Age architecture, and world-famous museums like the Rijksmuseum and Anne Frank House. Closer to port, IJmuiden offers wide beaches, harbour walks and a slower rhythm. Whether diving into Amsterdam’s culture or staying seaside, there’s beauty in both directions.

Zeebrugge
From the working port of Zeebrugge, a short journey brings you to Bruges - a city where time lingers in every stone. Walk along quiet canals, step into medieval squares, and marvel at the ornate Belfry of Bruges. Indulge in local chocolates, admire delicate lacework, or simply pause with a coffee as church bells echo through cobbled streets. This is Belgium at its most romantic - still, storied, and impossibly photogenic.
