  1. Day 1

    Dusseldorf, Germany

    Düsseldorf pairs a handsome Rhine setting with a modern, distinctly German edge. From the riverfront, the Altstadt’s narrow lanes lead to historic churches, intimate squares and traditional breweries serving Altbier. Nearby, Königsallee offers elegant boutiques beneath a canopy of trees, while the city’s acclaimed art museums reward a slower afternoon. Come ashore ready to walk: Düsseldorf’s highlights sit close together, and the Rhine is never far from view.

  2. Day 2

    Antwerp, Belgium

    Antwerp pairs a major working port with a rewarding historic center. At the Cathedral of Our Lady, Rubens’s paintings share space with centuries of Gothic stonework. Nearby, the Grote Markt frames guild houses and the ornate City Hall, with cafés offering an easy pause between visits. The Museum aan de Stroom explores Antwerp’s history and its enduring relationship with the river. Make time for a meal; Antwerp’s food culture is as compelling as its maritime heritage.

  3. Day 3

    Brussels, Belgium

    Brussels rewards visitors who look beyond its reputation as Europe’s political capital. At the Grand-Place, gilded guildhalls frame one of the continent’s most beautiful squares. Nearby, the Magritte Museum reveals the Belgian surrealist’s wit, while Art Nouveau façades reward an unhurried walk. Make time for lunch: moules-frites, crisp Belgian fries, or a freshly made waffle. The city’s cafés and chocolate makers offer good reason to linger between sights.

  4. Day 4

    Nijmegen, Netherlands

    Nijmegen is often called the Netherlands’ oldest city, with roots in a Roman settlement on the Waal. The river gives the historic centre an open feel, while cafés and independent shops keep it lively. Visit Valkhof Park for Roman remains and river views; nearby, the medieval Stevenskerk anchors the old town. Nijmegen’s bridges figured in Operation Market Garden in 1944, a defining episode of the Second World War. Come ashore to discover a compact city shaped by history and river.

  5. Day 5

    Dusseldorf, Germany

    Düsseldorf pairs a handsome Rhine setting with a modern, distinctly German edge. From the riverfront, the Altstadt’s narrow lanes lead to historic churches, intimate squares and traditional breweries serving Altbier. Nearby, Königsallee offers elegant boutiques beneath a canopy of trees, while the city’s acclaimed art museums reward a slower afternoon. Come ashore ready to walk: Düsseldorf’s highlights sit close together, and the Rhine is never far from view.
