The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Walk through the world's greatest flower garden at peak bloom — over seven million tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths across 32 hectares of sculpted parkland. An absolute Dutch bucket-list icon, best experienced with a private transfer direct from Felison Cruise Terminal.
Explore UNESCO-listed Amsterdam with a private local guide — gliding the Golden Age canal belt by private boat, then stepping inside the Rijksmuseum for a curated encounter with Rembrandt and Vermeer masterpieces. The ultimate Dutch cultural day, crafted entirely around you.
Step aboard a full-scale replica of the 17th-century Dutch East India Company tall ship Batavia at Lelystad's own waterfront museum — an immersive encounter with Golden Age seafaring, shipwreck history, and the story of how the Netherlands reclaimed land from the sea.
Discover a world-class aviation museum at Lelystad Airport housing over 100 historic aircraft — from a Wright Flyer replica to a KLM Boeing 747 you can walk through. The Netherlands' premier aviation experience, and a true bucket-list moment for anyone who loves flight.
Lift off from Lelystad Airport for a private helicopter flight over the extraordinary patchwork of reclaimed polders, wind farms, and glittering IJsselmeer coastline — a perspective on the Dutch landscape that simply cannot be had any other way.
Ride on horseback through one of Europe's most remarkable rewilded nature reserves — home to free-roaming Konik horses, red deer, and greylag geese just minutes from the cruise terminal. A genuinely extraordinary wilderness experience in the Netherlands.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
