For a memorable Easter break, escape to three captivating cities in three different countries, with each one presenting a plethora of arresting sights and cultural highlights. In Germany, a full day in Hamburg allows ample time for exploration. Take in the city at your leisure; perhaps explore the canals, discover the lakes and see the bridges, see historic landmarks such the Rathaus and St. Nikolai Steeple, and delve into rich seafaring history at the International Maritime Museum. You’ll see Hamburg’s maritime industry in action, as you depart via the River Elbe, passing by busy ship yards and dry docks, before scenic cruising by rarely-visited Heligoland.

Sail another important industrial route, the North Sea Canal, through picturesque lowlands straight into the Netherlands’ capital, Amsterdam. Once ashore here, a boat tour of the city’s iconic canals is an unforgettable way to see the fine architecture on display, particularly within the UNESCO-listed Canal Ring district. There are plenty of world-famous museums, galleries and exhibits to visit too. Finally, in Belgium, there’s a call at Zeebrugge, your gateway to Bruges. Take the short trip to Bruges and you’ll be rewarded with the charms of this Flemish gem, from its fairy-tale historic heart and its centuries-old monuments to its world-renowned Belgian chocolate shops and cafés.
