It’s famous for its collection of cultural cities – like arty Amsterdam, historic Utrecht and modern-meets-Medieval Medemblik. Between them they flaunt an eyebrow-raising assortment of world-famous landmarks – like the Anne Frank Museum, the Rijksmuseum, the Zaanse Schans Dutch community and the Keukenhof flower gardens. The best time to see the latter is in March or April, when our Dutch & Belgian Waterways cruises – like Beautiful Benelux and Dutch Delights – offer excursions to see the famous tulips in all their rainbow-hued glory. Off the beaten track Our river cruises to the Netherlands tick off lesser-known places like Dordrecht and Veere, too. The Beautiful Benelux cruise includes visits to both. Veere’s right next to a lagoon and is a popular spot for watersports, while Dordrecht is the country’s oldest city. We also include the Netherlands on our European Icons river cruise, which covers off Amsterdam, as well as places like Cologne in Germany and Linz in Austria. OUR RECOMMENDED NETHERLANDS SHORE EXCURSIONS You’ve got a chocolate-box style collection of choice when it comes to excursions on our Netherlands river cruises. You could sail the Amsterdam canals – there are over 100 kilometres of them in all. As you weave your way through these ancient waterways, keep your eyes peeled for the city’s major museums as well as tall townhouses that practically hold each other up. Or you might make a beeline for Zaanse Schans, a community famous for its iconic wooden windmills. In Rotterdam, you could tour its modern city streets, while in Veere you might get to visit the Oosterscheldekering – a huge dam that protects the Netherlands from North Sea flooding.
