Ports of Call
Cruise from London Tilbury
- Bruges (Zeebrugge): Bruges has canals, old squares and a centre made for walking. Visit the Markt, climb the Belfry, or browse chocolate shops and Christmas stalls. It suits a short festive sailing because the main sights sit close together.
- Amsterdam (Ijmuiden): Ijmuiden is the coastal gateway for Amsterdam. Head into the city for canals, museums and winter shopping, or stay nearer the coast for a simpler day ashore. It gives the cruise a classic Dutch port with plenty of choice.
- Rotterdam: Rotterdam is known for modern architecture, wide river views and a strong food scene. See the Cube Houses, visit Markthal, or walk along the waterfront near the Erasmus Bridge. It adds a more modern Dutch contrast after Amsterdam and Bruges.
