Explore the diverse culture and sights of these European countries as you cruise along the river on the modern A-ROSA ship and enjoy delicious cuisine and excellent entertainment. Take advantage of the various activities on board including a wellness center, swimming pool and expertly guided excursions to the sights and sites along your journey. You can explore the city of Ghent, which boasts a rich history and a vibrant modern scene, with unique boutiques, trendy cafes and plenty of vegetarian restaurants. During this trip, you can also enjoy the beauties of idyllic Gorinchem, the Hanseatic city of Emmerich and Brussels - the heart of Europe.

PREMIUM - The best of Benelux (AQUA)

All cruises are international, meaning that all materials such as menus, radio announcements, etc. are in English. Likewise, the tours are available with English-speaking guides and the staff on board speak English (mostly also German).

 

Ghent - this old university city is bursting with energy. It is rich in cultural attractions and boasts a diverse nightlife with impressive architectural monuments as a backdrop. During the "Gentse Feesten" - a ten-day festival of street performances, music and culture that takes place every July in the city center - these magnificent buildings really stand out, illuminated by light installations. It is truly a magnificent sight.

 

Brussels - the capital of Belgium and also the seat of the European Union. A number of unique monuments await you - including the famous charming little boy Manneken Pis. And while you are in Brussels, be sure to taste the many Belgian specialties that this city has to offer - or buy some Belgian chocolate as a gift for your loved ones.

 

Cologne - there are many attractions to see and they are all overshadowed by the cathedral, which is 144.5 meters long and 157.38 meters high, the third largest church building in the world. The view of Cologne is definitely worth the effort of climbing the 533 steps of the church tower. The Basilica of St. Martin is another fantastic sight. In front of it, the brightly colored houses of the Cologne fish market seem to glow. Thanks to its location away from the hustle and bustle of the city center, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the old town here.

Itinerary

Day Place Arrival Departure
1 Cologne - 17:00
Welcome to Cologne! The typical friendliness that you find at every turn makes visitors feel at home right away. It’s not unusual to quickly get chatting to strangers and even go for a couple of glasses of Kölsch with them. The main landmark – Cologne Cathedral – watches over the whole city. It is the third-tallest church building in the world, at 157.38 metres. It might be a bit of a trek up to the top of the tower, but it’s worth it. You’ll be rewarded with an unforgettable view of the city and the Rhine spread out before you. 
2 Willemstad 11:00 20:30
The former Dutch fortress of Willemstad is a tranquil little village with a delightful harbor. And of course, a typical dutch town like this can't lack a windmill! During a walk through the quiet town you will surely discover one.
3 Ghent 05:00 21:00
This old university town buzzes with energy. Rich in cultural attractions, it also boasts a varied nightlife, with imposing architectural monuments serving as a backdrop. During the ‘Gentse Feesten’ – a ten-day festival of street performance, music and culture that takes place in the city centre every July – these magnificent buildings really come into their own, illuminated by light installations It is a truly spectacular sight. 
4 Middelburg 07:00 17:00
Middelburg captivates visitors with its historic charm and picturesque old town. The abbey is particularly impressive, with its majestic tower, 'Tall John', offering a magnificent view over the town. Another highlight is the town hall, with its splendid Gothic architecture making it one of the most beautiful buildings in the Netherlands. Along the canals, cosy cafés and small boutiques invite you to linger and exude a typical Dutch atmosphere. Culture lovers can learn more about the region's history at the Zeeuws Museum. Middelburg is an ideal destination for anyone wishing to combine rich history, architectural splendour and a relaxed atmosphere.
5 Brussels 08:00 22:00
Brussels is both the capital of Belgium and the headquarters of the European Union. A whole host of unique sights – including the famous Manneken Pis – await you. And while you’re in Brussels, make sure you try the many Belgian specialities that the city has to offer – or pick up some original Belgian chocolates as a gift for your loved ones. Mmm – lovely!
6 Gorinchem 13:00 23:00
Welcome to the largest fortified town in the Netherlands. In Gorinchem, you don't have to look far to find the town's history, as the former fortifications have been preserved almost in their entirety. A special footpath now leads over the ramparts and promises wonderful vistas. On the 'Langendijk', Gorinchem's most beautiful shopping street, you can experience a great mix of old and new, with modern shops in a historic setting.
7 Emmerich 09:00 15:00
The small beautiful town of Emmerich on the lower Lower Rhine gives you a nice time out on land during your cruise. Here you can take a stroll along the promenade and enjoy the magnificent view of the Rhine while discovering the "Golden Gate Bridge of the Lower Rhine", a suspension bridge spanning over the Rhine, which, just like its role model, can be seen from afar in vibrant red. Definitely worth taking a souvenir photo!
