Rotterdam is thoroughly modern—understand why it’s sometimes called “Manhattan on the Meuse”: The Maas Tower, the Montevideo, the Millennium Tower, and the spectacular Erasmus Bridge make for a dazzling skyline. Begin your day by exploring this modern city on a Dutch culinary stroll, stopping at the architectural milestone, Market Hall. Erected in 2014, it’s known for its futuristic look and unique culinary offerings. Later, head to Kinderdijk to discover why windmills are such an iconic symbol of Holland, marvel at their engineering, and learn about their role in changing the course of Dutch history.

Choose between Dutch Culinary Stroll to Rotterdam’s Market Hall or Rotterdam, City of the Future or Kinderdijk Windmills or Let’s Go: Biking the Dams and Windmills.

Your ship docks this morning in the quaint Zeeland village of Veere, which will be your base for explorations of this charming town. A harbor village on the shores of the Western Scheldt, Veere may be a small town now, but its stately 15th-century town hall tells of a grander past. For three centuries, it was the bustling center of the wool trade with Scotland; the wealth from this trade built the splendid church with its tall and ornate steeple that dominates the village and the handsome mansions on its main street.

Choose between Stroll into the Artists’ Village of Veere or Delta Works Drive.

Your first day in Belgium offers you the chance to visit one of two national gems: beautiful Bruges, the capital of West Flanders and one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Europe, or fascinating Ghent, the capital city of East Flanders, whose long history does not weigh on its vibrant present. Belgium’s second-largest city, Ghent, abounds in medieval architecture, but there is nothing museum-like about the city. It’s lively and brims with cutting-edge boutiques and galleries.

Choose between the Bruges Walking Tour with Canal Cruise or the Ghent Walking Tour.

It may be the world's diamond capital, but Antwerp is known for several other sought-after cultural gems, including Golden Age art and Belgian beer, waffles, and fries. Visit Antwerp's striking Cathedral of Our Lady, with its UNESCO-designated belfry and its historic surroundings, or, if you're feeling adventurous, hop on the metro and experience the city like a local.

Choose between Antwerp Historic Downtown Highlights or Do as the Locals Do: Antwerp Walking Tour.

A special Captain's Farewell Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you this evening.
