Ports of Call

Cruise from Newcastle

  • Honfleur: Slender masts and slate-fronted houses ring the old harbour. Visit the wooden St Catherine’s Church or browse the galleries and markets. It’s compact, walkable, and quietly photogenic.
  • Rotterdam: A modern skyline and a busy river set the tone. See the Cube Houses and Markthal, then take a water taxi for a different view. The city mixes bold architecture with easygoing neighbourhoods.
  • Bruges (Zeebrugge): Medieval lanes and still canals reward slow wandering. Climb the Belfry, slip into a quiet courtyard, or sample chocolate near the Markt. It’s small, pretty, and made for lingering.
