Easygoing, liberal Amsterdam is 'different.' Its citizens, bubbling along happily in their multiracial melting pot, are not so easily poured into the restrictive molds of trade and industry. More important, you can enjoy Amsterdam, its culture, history, and beauty, without stretching the limits of your credit cards. Few skyscrapers mar the clarity of the sky, and the populace mostly walks or bikes from place to place. The historic center recalls Amsterdam's Golden Age as the command post of a vast trading network and colonial empire, when wealthy merchants constructed gabled residences along neatly laid-out canals.
Visit Dam Square, Anne Frank House, Bloemenmarkt, Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Canal Belt, Jordaan, Red Light District and so much more!
3 nights in Bruges
The city center of Bruges is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is easily explored on foot, by boat ride along quiet canals, or by horse-drawn carriage among cobblestone streets. With the city center closed off to cars, all the architectural and artistic treasures, folklore, chocolate shops, lace boutiques, and charming restaurants are well preserved, so take your time and fully enjoy what this unforgettable city has to offer!
Visit the Bruges' Markt (main square), Belfry, Basilica of the Holy Blood, Stadhuis (Town Hall), Liberty of Bruges, Groeninge Museum, Church of Our Lady, Memling Museum, Sint Jansspitaal, Beguinage, Dijver Mansions, Minewater Lake, De Hale Maan Brewery, and so much more!
3 nights in Brussels
Brussels is sumptuous, historic and luxuriously cozy. What makes Brussels special? For visitors, it's full of delights - Grand Place, mussels with chips, pralines, under crowded museums, intimate hotels, Art Nouveau, Horta, Tintin and unbelievable beers. Modern edifices are only a few steps from the cobbled streets, splendid cafés, and graceful Art Nouveau architecture that speak to the city's eventful past. Its spirit survives in traditional cafes, bars, bistros, and restaurants. Whether elegantly Art Nouveau or eccentrically festooned with posters, curios, and knickknacks, such centuries-old establishments provide a warm, convivial ambience that is peculiarly Belgian.
Enjoy the Grand-Place, Cantillon Brewery, Mini-Europe, Belgian Comic Strip Center, Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Saint-Michel Cathedral and so much more!
<b>The Netherlands</b> (or Holland) may be a small country, but it`s filled with world-famous icons. This country is famous for its bulb fields, windmills, cheese markets, wooden shoes, canals of Amsterdam, masterpieces of Old Masters, Delft Blue earthenware, innovative water management, and millions of bicycles. As you explore the Netherlands you`ll find photogenic spots at every nook and cranny, a hipster coffee scene, an up and coming food scene, and loads of wonderful museums. While its most well-known city is Amsterdam, there are plenty of other beautiful cities that you will want to explore as well.
<b>Belgium</b> is known for its delicious chocolates, its crispy fries, fluffy waffles, and a wide array of beers. There are over 3,000 castles to explore, battlegrounds from the World Wars, and every museum imaginable. Though it is a small nation, it plays a big part in the world's history. It is also a destination with thousands of breweries and all the chocolate you can imagine.
