What you'll do
Upon arrival at the port of Rotterdam or Ijmuiden, our Shore2Shore guide will be waiting for you with an identification sign to begin this dynamic excursion to one of the most fascinating cities in Europe.
During the journey, you will learn the origin of the name “Netherlands” and how the Dutch have battled against the water for decades, expanding the size of their small country by almost 20%. You will also discover the history of Amsterdam’s formation and the importance of the Dutch Golden Age. After a comfortable bus ride, we will arrive in Amsterdam. Once in the city, you will have 3.5 hours of free time to explore at your own pace, strolling along the historic 17th-century canal ring, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, visiting streets, squares, cafés, or the city’s most famous area, the “Red Light District.”
Our guide will accompany you to the entrance of Central Station, so you can enjoy iconic landmarks such as:
-
Central Station, a majestic gateway to the city.
-
The Church of St. Nicholas, patron saint of sailors.
-
The famous Dam Square, the vibrant heart of Amsterdam.
-
The Royal Palace and the New Church.
-
The National Monument, honoring those who fell in World War II.
-
The historic De Wallen district.
-
Nieuwmarkt, with its traditional watchtower.
-
Spui Square and the tranquil Begijnhof.
-
The colorful Flower Market, a visual feast of tulips and other bulbs.
At the end of your time in the city, we will meet the rest of the group at Central Station to return to the coach. After this unforgettable experience, we will return by bus to the port of Rotterdam or Ijmuiden to bid you farewell and wish you a pleasant return to your cruise.
We hope this excursion allows you to experience the true essence of Amsterdam!
