Cruisereise fra Amsterdam, Netherlands

A cruise from Amsterdam is the perfect excuse to explore this vibrant Dutch capital. Spend a few days getting to know its picturesque canals, hip vintage shops, quirky cafes and colorful flower stalls. One of the best things to do when you visit Amsterdam is to start your morning with syrupy stroopwafels — wafer cookies held together by a sweet layer of caramel filling. Then enjoy a peaceful walk through Dam Square, home to Amsterdam’s Golden Age Royal Palace. If you love a good museum, you’ll find plenty here. Like the pop art-filled Moco, home to a big collection of pieces by Banksy. The cool and colorful Foam, which showcases photography by the art scene’s rising stars. And more traditional art spots, like the Van Gogh Museum and the Rijksmuseum — the biggest of Amsterdam’s “big three” museums and home to more than 8,000 masterpieces. At night, hunt down a cool craft cocktail bar — Amsterdam is filled with them.

LOCAL CUISINE

Amsterdam delivers a mix of Michelin-rated restaurants, canal-side cafes, and quintessential “Brown Bar” pubs. Hit a street market for herring sandwiches, syrup-filled stroopwafels, or fries slathered with mayonnaise. You can’t go wrong with stamppot (veggie mashed potatoes) or bitterballen (fried meatballs). And if you’re thirsty, sip jenever (Dutch gin)— or taste beer at the Heineken Experience.
