Welcome to Amsterdam! On arrival, you will be met and transferred to your river ship. This evening, meet your Cruise Director and fellow passengers at a Welcome Reception.

Day 2: Amsterdam, Utrecht

Amsterdam’s network of 17th-century canals lends the city its nickname – The Venice of the North. Board a glass-top boat and glide through Amsterdam’s maze of waterways with a local guide.

From here, your ship will set off along the Rhine as you prepare for tonight’s special Gala Dinner.
