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, as well as the handsome mansions on its main street.

    Choose Between

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

  • 8 | Apr 1, 2025 Ghent (Bruges)

    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’s nothing museum-like about the city. It’s lively and brims with cutting-edge boutiques and galleries.

    Choose Between

    Bruges Walking Tour with Canal Cruise or Ghent Walking Tour

  • 9 | Apr 2, 2025 Antwerp

    It may be the diamond capital of the world, but Antwerp is also known for a number of other sought-after cultural gems, including Golden Age art and Belgian beer, waffles and fries.

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