This high-standard, all-inclusive cruise invites you to unwind from the moment you step aboard. Enjoy stylish surroundings, attentive service and the ease of having drinks included throughout your stay, allowing you to truly relax and savour every moment.
A true highlight of your holiday is the included excursion to the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens, where beautifully landscaped displays showcase millions of tulips, daffodils and hyacinths in full bloom. It’s an unforgettable celebration of spring and one of the most iconic floral experiences in the world.
What makes this holiday truly special, however, is the journey itself. Rather than rushing to reach your ship, we take the time to ensure your comfort comes first. Travelling by coach from the UK, you’ll enjoy a carefully planned overnight stay in Kent before continuing to Amsterdam. This thoughtful approach means you arrive refreshed and ready to begin your cruise — avoiding the fatigue of a long, continuous journey.
From iconic windmills and charming canal towns to the spectacular bulbfields in full bloom, this is springtime in Holland at its most enchanting — experienced in comfort, at a gentle pace, and with every detail taken care of.
