About This Cruise

As spring arrives, VIVA MOMENTS invites you on a journey through the Netherlands and Belgium. Departing from Düsseldorf, this seven-night cruise combines vibrant cities, historic harbors, and relaxing moments on the water. The journey begins in Amsterdam, where your ship will stay overnight. Discover the canals and narrow gabled houses, wander through the streets, and take time to experience the city’s cultural diversity. Amid bridges, small shops, and cozy cafés, the Dutch capital reveals itself from ever-changing perspectives.

In Rotterdam, a different rhythm awaits you: modern architecture, striking buildings, and the atmosphere of a major port city will define your stay. The journey then continues to Antwerp. Historic facades, Flemish art, and Belgian specialties will inspire you to explore. Thanks to an overnight stay, you can also soak up the city’s charm in the evening.

With the old harbors of Dordrecht and a stop in Arnhem, you’ll discover even more facets of the Netherlands. Along the way, enjoy the contrast between cityscapes and open river landscapes, while spring awakens along the banks. On board, you’ll have time to let your impressions sink in at your own pace. This way, culture, city life, and relaxation come together to create a varied spring journey that ends back in Düsseldorf after seven nights.

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

Amsterdam

Amsterdam is one of those cities that every traveler should visit at least once in their lifetime. It’s no wonder that millions upon millions of tourists flock to the city of canals every year to enjoy its abundance of sights and cultural offerings. The best way to discover Amsterdam is on a boat tour along the canals or a stroll along these unique waterways. Art lovers will be immediately drawn to one of the world-famous museums, such as the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum, or the Van Gogh Museum. Partygoers will find their happy place in the nightlife and red-light district of De Wallen. And beer lovers should definitely not miss the Heineken Experience.

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.
