A Spring Getaway on the Rivers of Europe

Spring is upon us.

This might mean fluctuating weather depending on where you live, but it also means gorgeous flowers are blooming.

In Europe, this is especially true this time of year, every year. Which is exactly why traveling overseas right now should be in your travel plans if you love the springtime.

Crystal Cruises has the ideal voyages for those who love spring and flowers.

Travel on the Rhine River and through the countryside of Belgium and the Netherlands. Here you’ll see millions of tulip bulbs bloom, creating such spectacular, colorful views.

The “Tulip Time” itinerary sails from Amsterdam to Ghent, with sights of beautiful flowers as well as old world charms like castles and cobblestone streets. Cap it off with the iconic windmills of Holland.

Crystal Cruises also offers a “Flemish Accents” Crystal Getaway. On this journey, travelers will get the chance to experience Dutch culture in Holland’s oldest city, Dordrecht, Belgium’s high-fashion and art scene and also spend two nights in Amsterdam.

During the Amsterdam portion of the trip, guests will sample local beers and chocolates, and they will get the chance to see Van Gogh’s artwork.

Sailing through Europe’s rivers is something everything cruise lover should experience at least once.
