Daily Itinerary

1. Day 1

   Antwerp

   Depart 16:00

   Belgium

   

   Antwerp has been one of Europe's great mercantile capitals since the fifteenth century, when it commanded the world's first commodity exchange and Peter Paul Rubens made it the artistic capital of the Baroque world — a legacy preserved in the magnificent Rubenshuis studio and the soaring Cathedral of Our Lady, whose nave houses four of the master's greatest altarpieces. Today the city leads global fashion from the acclaimed Antwerp Six design school and remains the diamond capital of the world, with 84% of the world's rough diamonds trading through its storied district. Visit in spring or autumn; Brussels and Bruges are each under an hour away by train.

2. Day 2

   Nijmegen

   Arrive 08:00Depart 14:00

   Netherlands

   

   Nijmegen, the oldest city in the Netherlands, is a captivating port known for its rich history, vibrant atmosphere, and delightful culinary offerings. Don’t miss the opportunity to try the traditional **Nijmeegse Dikke Tuit** soup and explore the bustling markets. The best time to visit is during the spring and summer months when the city comes alive with festivals and outdoor activities.

3. Day 3

   Cologne

   Arrive 07:30Depart 13:30

   Germany

   

   Cologne's twin-spired Gothic cathedral, six hundred years in the building and still the city's defining monument, is the inevitable starting point — but this ancient Rhine city rewards exploration well beyond its iconic silhouette. The Romano-Germanic Museum reveals the city's Roman foundations, while the Chocolate Museum on the riverbank offers a distinctly sweeter history lesson. Cologne's famed Kölsch beer culture thrives in the old town's traditional brew-houses, where one round follows another in centuries-old wooden halls. The city is welcoming year-round, though the legendary Christmas markets (November–December) attract visitors from across Europe.

4. Day 3

   Dusseldorf

   Arrive 16:30Depart 22:30

   Germany

   

   Düsseldorf's port is a vibrant hub of culture and history, offering a unique blend of modern architecture and traditional charm. Must-do experiences include sampling the local Altbier and Rheintopf stew and exploring the nearby picturesque town of Wertheim. The best season to visit is during the spring, when the city blossoms and outdoor activities abound.

5. Day 4

   Dordrecht

   Arrive 13:30Depart 22:00

   Netherlands

   

   Dordrecht, one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, is a historic port known for its medieval architecture and vibrant atmosphere. Must-do experiences include exploring its picturesque canals and indulging in local delicacies like herring and stroopwafels.
