Highlights
This 11-day guided tour brings Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands to you through the quiet wartime fields, cool canal air and the rasp of wood beneath a shoemaker’s blade. In Luxembourg, you follow sweet and savory aromas to a farm-to-table feast at L’Écurie du Parc, a former horse stable turned restaurant. After dinner, you pass along the street below 12th-century Clervaux Castle, its pale walls high on the rocky promontory above the town. At the star-shaped Mardasson Monument, you follow the spiral staircase upwards, with the names and battle history carved into the stone around you, then step out to look across the fields where the Battle of the Bulge was fought. In Amsterdam, your boat drifts through the UNESCO-listed canal district, passing 16th-century merchant houses and Magere Brug, the slim white bridge over the Amstel. At the Rijksmuseum, a Local Specialist guides you to Rembrandt’s Night Watch, before you watch a shoemaker pare and shape traditional clogs by hand.

Itinerary
Your airport transfer takes you from Brussels airport to your centrally located hotel, with the afternoon free after check-in. Later, you join your Travel Director in the Old Town, where the small bronze Manneken Pis draws a crowd for a very Brussels kind of humor. The streets carry the sweet smell of waffles and warm sugar towards Grand Place, where gilded guildhalls, carved stone and the low murmur of voices gather around one of Europe’s most beautiful squares. Dinner follows at a local restaurant nearby, where the room warms with clinking glasses, shared laughter and conversation with the people you’ll travel with.

With your choice experience, you might learn how Napoleon’s final defeat unfolded on Waterloo’s open battlefield, or follow the scent of cocoa into a private Brussels truffle-making lesson, dipping, rolling and dusting chocolate truffles with a master chocolatier before enjoying the finished pieces. If you choose Brussels, you continue through the city with a Local Specialist, past ornate façades and old shopfronts, where you might catch the sound of a tram bell ringing through the street. The rest of the day is yours, with time to linger over lunch or join an Optional Experience to Antwerp, where another side of Belgium waits along the river.

In Brussels, the painted eaves of the Chinese and Japanese Pavilions mingle with the cool metallic gleam of the Atomium’s spheres. Then the road carries you across the pasturelands of Flanders to Ghent, the City of Flowers, where petals spill from window boxes and you catch the soft scent of blooms by the canal. With a Local Specialist, you stay close to the quays, hearing water lap against stone as boats pass beneath stepped gables and old façades. Inside St Bavo’s Cathedral, the canal sounds fall away into cooler air, carved columns and Van Eyck’s Ghent Altarpiece, before you see the Castle of the Counts and its stone walls above the city. Bruges is yours for the next two nights, its canals slipping between medieval façades and stone bridges. With a Local Specialist, you follow narrow streets lined with 16th-century high-gabled houses towards Market Square, where the 83-meter Belfry rises above the rooftops and you might catch its chimes carrying across the square. In Burg Square, you pass the Gothic town hall, taking in its carved stonework before pausing inside the Holy Blood Chapel, where painted walls and stained-glass windows sit in the hush of a sacred space.

The road carries you through Wallonia into the green folds of the Molignée valley, where Maredsous Abbey stands in neo-Gothic stone above the trees. Pointed arches, tall lancet windows and cloistered courtyards bring you into a Benedictine world shaped by prayer, study, craft and hospitality since 1872. At the abbey, you’ll have the chance to savor Maredsous beer with soft malt notes, a clean bitter edge and a small ring of pale foam, followed by creamy cave-matured Maredsous cheese with an orange rind. From here, you continue into the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and your 18th-century château stay in Clervaux. At Les Écuries du Parc, your Farm-to-Table dinner brings the countryside indoors, perhaps with the scent of warm bread, herbs and butter from the table as seasonal produce arrives on the plate. Afterwards, you might head out into the evening, where the illuminated 12th-century castle watches over the town.

On Pont Adolphe, you pause high above the Pétrusse Valley, with trees, shaded paths and old stone defenses far below. Leaving the bridge, you pass down into the UNESCO-listed Old Town’s rock-cut walls, narrow lanes and fortified stone before the Grand Ducal Palace brings a flourish of ceremony, its 16th-century Flemish Renaissance facade worked with patterned windows and delicate balconies. With time to explore, you might follow the old streets into everyday Luxembourg, past shopfronts, terrace chatter and the warm scent of bread from a nearby bakery. Or choose today’s Optional Experience to Trier, birthplace of Karl Marx, where a Local Specialist leads you through one of Germany’s oldest cities to the Porta Nigra, its weathered sandstone arches carrying the scale of ancient Rome. You return to your château in the green folds of the Luxembourg Ardennes, where wooded hills line the road and cooler country air brushes your skin.

Here, you’ll see where parliament sits and pause at the Peace Palace, with its red brick, pale stone and wrought-iron gates. On select departures, you move through Keukenhof as it blooms with tulips, hyacinths and planted beds, the freshness of bulbs and damp earth in the air. You continue through the Dutch countryside, past villages, low fields and windmills, before arriving in Amsterdam for three nights. In Amsterdam, you'll join a canal dinner cruise, where the menu reflects the city’s longstanding Indonesian influence, shaped by its colonial past.
