The Netherlands, Belgium and Paris | 9-day package by train.

Upon our arrival at Amsterdam’s airport, we will enjoy a comfortable transfer to our hotel, nestled in the heart of the city. After settling in, the rest of the day is ours to begin discovering this charming capital at our own pace.

As we wander through quiet alleys and across graceful bridges, we may feel the city gently revealing itself — in the reflection of the canals, the rhythm of passing bicycles, and the soft glow of old streetlamps. A stroll through Dam Square, framed by the Royal Palace and lively cafés, offers a perfect first glimpse into Amsterdam’s unique blend of history and modern life.

In the evening, you can visit the famous Red Light District, where history, controversy, and curiosity intertwine in one of the city's most iconic areas.

Greca Tip: For your first evening, consider dining along one of the city’s scenic canals and trying a traditional stamppot — a comforting Dutch classic that feels like a warm welcome from the north.

After enjoying a delicious breakfast at the hotel, a day of discovery in the vibrant heart of Amsterdam awaits. In the morning, you will make your own way to the meeting point to join a guided walking tour, offering a unique perspective on the city—an engaging blend of deep history and pure entertainment.

Over the course of approximately 2.5 hours, an expert guide will lead us through the most iconic sights of the historic center, from its humble beginnings as a muddy village on the banks of the Amstel River to its rise as Europe’s trading capital. As we walk through streets filled with secrets, we’ll hear stories rarely found in guidebooks: the evolution of the Red Light District, the country’s tolerant drug policies, and the moving legacy of Anne Frank and the Nazi occupation.

In the afternoon, you may choose to unwind in the peaceful surroundings of Vondelpark, or explore De Pijp, a lively neighborhood full of local flavor, indie shops, and cozy cafés. A highly recommended experience is a canal cruise, offering a serene and unforgettable view of Amsterdam from the water.

For travelers wishing to discover more of the Netherlands, we highly recommend extending your stay in Amsterdam by an additional night and adding a full-day excursion through the Dutch countryside. This unforgettable experience takes you to the picturesque villages of Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam, and Marken. Admire the iconic windmills of Zaanse Schans, stroll along the charming canals of Edam, experience the lively fishing harbor of Volendam, and step back in time in the traditional village of Marken. It is the perfect way to connect with the authentic culture, traditions, and landscapes that make the Netherlands so unique.

As night falls, we suggest heading to De Jordaan for dinner. With its narrow streets and artistic soul, this charming district is ideal for a relaxed meal in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Greca Tip: If you are considering the Dutch countryside excursion, we recommend adding an extra night in Amsterdam to enjoy the experience at a relaxed pace. Combined with a canal cruise, it offers a wonderful balance between the city's vibrant energy and the tranquility of the Dutch countryside.

After enjoying a delicious breakfast in Amsterdam, it will be time to say goodbye to its centuries-old canals and begin a new chapter of your journey: today we head to Rotterdam, the most avant-garde city in the Netherlands.

In the morning, you will need to make your own way to Amsterdam’s train station, or opt to add an optional private transfer from your hotel, where you’ll board a comfortable and fast train bound for Rotterdam. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed by a completely different kind of city: bold, modern, full of innovative architecture and a creative energy that makes it truly one-of-a-kind in Europe.

Once in Rotterdam, make your way to your hotel to drop off your luggage (optional private transfer). From that point on, the day is yours to explore at your own pace. We suggest starting with the Markthal, an impressive indoor market known for both its striking architecture and its culinary offerings. From there, you can walk to the famous Cube Houses, the iconic Erasmus Bridge, or even enjoy a short cruise through Europe’s largest port.

Rotterdam is a city that surprises, breaks conventions, and invites you to experience the present (and future) of the Netherlands from a completely different perspective.

Greca Tip: Don’t miss the chance to sit at one of the cafés or bars along the Meuse River at sunset — the contrast between water, sky, and skyscrapers creates an unforgettable postcard moment.

In the morning, you will need to make your own way to Rotterdam’s train station, where you will board a comfortable train bound for Antwerp. The journey is short and pleasant, allowing you to arrive with plenty of time to start exploring this cosmopolitan Belgian city.

Don’t miss the stunning Cathedral of Our Lady, home to masterpieces by Rubens, or the Grote Markt, surrounded by majestic guild houses. You might also want to visit the Plantin-Moretus Museum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to delve into the city’s rich printing history.

Antwerp is also synonymous with fashion, design, and diamonds. Let its shop windows tell you stories of luxury and creativity.
