River Cruise Itinerary

  1. Day 1
    Amsterdam
    Fri, Mar 19, 2027

    A city of charming canals, elegant gabled houses, splendid museums and abundant bicycles, the Dutch capital of Amsterdam is a delight to explore. Its patchwork of waterways forms about 90 islands connected by 1,500 bridges. The legacy of the Dutch Golden Age lives on in gilded manses and in the lush paintings of Rembrandt and other Dutch masters that adorn the Rijksmuseum, The Netherlands' grand repository of art and cultural history. Discovering Amsterdam is a pleasure best pursued on foot; visitors line the tranquil canals and linger over Dutch pancakes, or take a stroopwafel to go.

  2. Day 2
    Amsterdam
    Sat, Mar 20, 2027

    In Amsterdam, the bicycle is as much a cultural treasure as any museum. The city's flat terrain makes it ideal for getting around on two wheels. Bikes first pedaled onto the city's streets during the late 19th century; in the 1960s, the first bike-share program was invented here, founded by members of the anti-establishment Provo movement-short for "provocateur”-whose aim was to reduce air pollution created by cars. The program did not last, but the bicycle did, and cycle lanes were soon added to the street. Today, the city is home to hundreds of thousands of bikes.

  3. Day 3
    Enkhuizen
    Sun, Mar 21, 2027

    Originally a small fishing village, Enkhuizen grew into a prosperous harbor before joining the Hanseatic League. During the 17th century, the city flourished as a center of maritime trade and shipbuilding. The silting up of the Zuiderzee at the end of the century ended this golden era; the sea eventually became an inland lake, cut off from the North Sea, with the completion of a dike in 1932. The era's wealth and prosperity remain evident in several impressive landmarks, including the Drommedaris, a former city gate and watchtower, and the striking Gothic-style Zuiderkerk.

  4. Day 4
    Arnhem
    Mon, Mar 22, 2027

    A picturesque town nearly destroyed during World War II, Arnhem is graced with an array of beautiful parks and gardens. In 1443, Arnhem joined the Hanseatic League, the powerful merchant conglomerate that dominated Northern Europe's medieval trade world. During the 19th century, it evolved into a more leisurely town, renowned for its scenic landscapes. Today, Arnhem's Hoge Veluwe National Park is known for its natural beauty and diverse flora and fauna, as well as the Kröller-Müller Museum, which boasts the world's second-largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh.

  5. Day 5
    Rotterdam
    Tue, Mar 23, 2027

    Rotterdam stretches across a maze of natural and artificial waterways. With its location at the mouth of the New Meuse River and easy link to the Rhine and Central Europe, it is Europe's largest port, earning it the nickname "Gateway to Europe.” Much of it was destroyed during World War II, yet it stands today as one of the continent's great cities of art, architecture and innovation, boasting a lively culture and many museums. With a pleasant river orientation, Rotterdam's spacious new inner city is a pleasure to explore; its shop-lined Lijnbaan district was Europe's first pedestrian shopping precinct.

  6. Day 6
    Antwerp
    Wed, Mar 24, 2027

    A cosmopolitan city, Antwerp is one of the world's major seaports. Its unique atmosphere comes from the contrasts between old and new, commerce and art. The Old Town and the expansive Grote Markt are filled with narrow, winding streets and medieval guild houses. The Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady, Belgium's largest church, contains works by 17th-century painter Peter Paul Rubens; he lived in the city and is entombed in the Church of St. James. Antwerp is also renowned for diamonds and chocolate. Many diamond cutters can be found here alongside countless confectioners.

  7. Day 7
    Middelburg
    Thu, Mar 25, 2027

    The capital of Zeeland, Middelburg's historical significance can be seen in its well-preserved medieval buildings. The magnificent 15th-century Gothic-style Town Hall stands as a testament to Middelburg's past grandeur. The soaring abbey tower of Lange Jan offers panoramic views of the city, while the 800-year-old abbey complex showcases striking architecture. The city hosts various cultural events throughout the year, including the annual Middelburg Jazz Festival and the Mosselfeesten (Mussel Festival), where guests can enjoy a variety of Zeeland's delicious delicacy.

  8. Day 8
    Zeeland
    Fri, Mar 26, 2027

    The tranquil region of Zeeland is a fascinating blend of natural and human-made landscapes. Here, large swaths of land have been shaped by the tendrils of the delta where the Rhine, Meuse and Scheldt Rivers make their final sprint to the sea. Much of this land lies below sea level, protected from the tides of the North Sea by the vast Delta Works project and by the work of the classic windmills that grace the landscape. A number of islands dot this serene coastal region too. This archipelago of sorts gives this province its name: Zeeland, which means "sea land.” From September through April, restaurants in Zeeland offer oysters, farmed fresh from local waters. They are delicious served with a squeeze of lemon and paired with a crisp glass of wine.

  9. Day 9
    Amsterdam
    Sat, Mar 27, 2027

    Amsterdam is admired for its charming brick canal houses, with their distinctive stepped gables and forward slant. A stroll along the city's waterways showcases the beautiful architecture of these properties and their interesting features. The houses are traditionally narrow but deep and tend to tilt forward. The lean serves two purposes: it provides additional living space in a house's upper quarters; and, in conjunction with the hoist beam protruding from the peak of the roof, it allows heavy items to be lifted by pulley to top floors without breaking any windows.

  10. Day 10
    Amsterdam
    Sun, Mar 28, 2027

    Bid farewell to your fellow guests and journey home. Or spend more time exploring, perhaps joining one of our extensions.

All parts of the trip were wonderful, from the Turkish Air flights, to the Viking ship, to the bus transportation on land

Wonderful experience on Viking. Great people with excellent knowledge of everything Egypt.

Viking does an outstanding job with their trips.

Vking took care of us every step of the way.

Wonderful cruise that exceeded our expectations. Ship was like new, rooms immaculate, and food was 4 star quality.

Everything went very well and professional as always

Had never been on a river cruise before. Overall I prefer ocean cruises, mainly because of the onboard experiences. Not enough public spaces on the river boat. Staff was very friendly and accommodating, but seemed to be doing too many jobs-always rushed. However I loved the included tours off the boat. Most were walking right off the boat with your guide into town. All of the guides were excellent-very knowledgeable, professional, yet had a great sense of humor. They didn’t sound like they had repeated the same information to others many times over.

Viking cruises continue to provide exceptional experience and value.

We have used AffordableTours.com a number of times and find them very helpful, reliable and truthful in the information they provide. This is our usual "go to" site for travel booking when using an agent. Thanks again!

Excellent, friendly staff and great food! Lower deck cabin was bigger and let in more light than expected.

Viking is a well known and well respected company.

Viking's Cruise Pharaohs and Pyramids was a trip of a lifetime. We felt safe the entire time, had the same ship Egyptologist for almost each excursion. Thank you for helping us with this booking. :)

Viking Mississippi River cruise was great. Affordable tours and staff were great. Our consultant from Affordable Tours was so wonderful to work with. All exceeded our expectations.

Viking is a premium cruise company. They are well run and the staff is always friendly and smiling. Our two river cruises were excellent, and we were able to see a lot of interesting and beautiful things. The rivers in the summertime are full of other longboats and tourists, like us. The places we visited were crowded and there were several other Viking ships in port, so it could get confusing to stay in your group. At times, we needed to pay more attention to our guide than where we were going.
