Itinerary

Germany

Düsseldorf

The Rhineland way of life, blending tradition and modernity—Düsseldorf captivates with its diversity! Art and culture lovers are just as enthralled here as shopping enthusiasts; the Media Harbor impresses with its contemporary architecture, as does the historic Old Town. With more than 250 cozy pubs, the Old Town makes Düsseldorf the “longest bar in the world.” And it’s not just the traditional Altbier that tastes great there! Don’t miss a stroll down Königsallee, the world-famous shopping boulevard—or perhaps you’d prefer a visit to one of the many charming flea markets? And right in the middle of it all: plenty of green space and the Rhine with its riverside promenade, perfect for taking a deep breath. No wonder the VIVA family feels right at home here!

Netherlands

Rotterdam

The port city of Rotterdam is located in the Netherlands and is one of the most interesting places in the world. Its modern architecture plays a significant role in this. Among the impressive sights is the horseshoe-shaped Market Hall, with its vast array of goods and lively atmosphere. In the Old Harbor, with its striking white building, you can admire historic ships. The Witte de Withstraat shopping district is a great place to stroll, shop, and party. The futuristic-looking central station, known as “The Bag,” is also a great spot for bar-hopping and shopping.

Belgium

Antwerp

The heart of Flanders beats in Antwerp, the international center of the diamond trade. And when it comes to the finest chocolates and the vibrant cultural scene, it beats just a little faster. Home to numerous fashion designers, painters, and musicians, Antwerp was Europe’s largest city 400 years ago, and its historic city center bears witness to a magnificent past: A visit to the main hall of the central train station or the luxury department store “Stadsfeestzaal” is well worth it! In addition to thirteen UNESCO World Heritage Sites, more than 50 Baroque works by Rubens in various museums are a stunning sight to behold.

Belgium

Middelburg

Middelburg is a village and a district in the municipality of Maldegem, in East Flanders, Belgium. Founded as a town by Pieter Bladelin in the 15th century, it still contains the medieval church with the tomb of Bladelin and his wife.

Willemstad

Willemstad is a former fortress city built by William of Orange, located on the southern coast of the Netherlands. It is an imposing, star-shaped fortress consisting of a hexagon of canals and five bastions. There are a total of 11 fortresses along the southern coast of the Netherlands, three of which can be visited in Willemstad. In this historic city, the former ammunition depots and supply stores have been transformed into cozy cafés and restaurants, inviting visitors to take a break in a historic setting. In addition to touring the fortresses, you can also spot wonderful birds in the area around Willemstad. The best place to do this is at the Hellegat-Ventjager Bird Boulevard, where you’ll find four observation huts and a lookout tower.

Netherlands

Dordrecht

Thanks to its location on the water, the Dutch city of Dordrecht is a former trading city. This history is still evident in the city today—whether in the historic downtown, at the harbor, or in one of its many museums. Also worth seeing are the “Grote Kerk” and the 13th-century Augustinian monastery. A stroll through Dordrecht is the best way to discover the town’s history.

Netherlands

Nijmegen

The oldest city in the Netherlands exudes traditional Dutch charm with its gabled cottages, small cheese shops, and delicacies on the “Grote Markt.” In the narrow alleys, the past and present go hand in hand. That’s why a visit to the Gothic St. Stevenskerk, including its crypt, as well as a stroll down the shopping street “Lange Hezelstraat,” should be on your sightseeing itinerary. Afterward, there’s no better way to take a break than with some freshly fried kibbelingen in Kronenburgerpark during the winter months.
