Discover Holland on our best Europe River Cruises

Adventure in Bloom

Gabled homes and Golden Age canals are the backdrop for “glorious” on your Avalon cruise through the Netherlands. Beyond the bike-filled, cobblestone streets of Amsterdam, you’ll find gorgeous Dutch countryside and quaint villages steeped in tradition. Glide across the harbour of Rotterdam, marvel at the impressive Delta Works in Veere, or pedal through the lush landscapes of Nijmegen. Plus, travel during peak tulip season and experience quintessential scenes of windmills, waterways, and seemingly endless rows of blooming colour.
