Overview

Sail through Belgium and the Netherlands as we discover the floral displays of Keukenhof Gardens, visit poignant war sites, and explore the quaint streets of Amsterdam, Bruges, Ghent and more.

Don't miss the opportunity to marvel at the awe-inspiring blooms of Keukenhof. The world's largest flower garden is only open for a few months of the year, and its kaleidoscope of vibrant displays decorating the meticulously landscaped grounds promise to leave you breathless.

On our voyage, we'll explore some of the region's most charming cities, such as Antwerp and Ghent, and discover one of Europe’s finest ‘old world’ cities: the delightful Bruges. Take in the beauty of Amsterdam as you glide through its enchanting canals on a glass-topped canal boat. 

We'll also pay our respects at the battle HQ of the British 1st Airborne Division in Oosterbeek and visit the Commonwealth War Cemetery. Those with an interest in history can also choose to embark on a poignant excursion to Ypres and Tyne Cot Cemetery, reflecting the First World War’s staggering loss of life during an unforgettable trip back in time.  

This holiday is ideal for travellers with an interest in history and gardens.
