DAY 2 – Amsterdam

Arrive 1030 – Depart 2000
The unique city of Amsterdam is built on a series of canals criss-crossed at regular intervals by a fine collection of bridges – from small pedestrian only bridges to multi-lane car and railway. It’s a city that’s packed with countless places of interest in a relatively small area – once you’re there, it’s easy to see why the bicycle is the most popular mode of transport! Everywhere you look there are bikes, either locked to railings or being ridden around the streets. Amsterdam is a great place to buy yourself a pair of clogs – the quintessential item of traditional Dutch footwear. Or why not invest in a whole Edam cheese to take home as a tasty treat for family and friends? Amsterdam is home to a fine selection of museums, from the evocative Anne Frank House to the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum and more. You can even take a cruise along some of the many canals that criss-cross the city for an alternative perspective.

DAY 3 – Zeebrugge

Arrive 0800 – Depart 1600
The Belgian port of Zeebrugge is part of Bruges, the Flemish capital. Join us to discover this charming city with its beautiful architecture and peaceful canals. The delightful old centre has an abundance of attractions from the traditional gabled houses and majestic churches to narrow cobbled streets. Take the time to sample the famous Belgian beer or try a few of the luxurious chocolates. Alternatively, you could visit Ghent, one of Belgium’s oldest cities, with its elegant mediaeval architecture.

DAY 4 – Honfleur

Arrive 0800 – Depart 2200
This charming fishing port, a favourite haunt of the great impressionist painters, dates back to the 14th century. Step ashore on a walking tour of the typical Norman streets and alleys of the Old Town and note the striking contrast between the splendid two-storey stone houses, and the tall, slender houses up to seven storeys high. We will visit the Lieutenancy, the former house of the Governor, and Saint Catherine Church, a rare example in Western Europe of a building made entirely of wood. Honfleur is also the ideal place from where to visit the exciting city of Paris or the beautiful gardens at Giverny, where Monet painted his famous Waterlilies.
