The Food & Fine Art Of Flanders
Exploring The Art & Gastronomy Of Holland & Belgium
April 7 - 15, 2023 | Maximum Group Size: 15 Participants | Availability: Open
It is said that God created heaven and earth – except Holland. The Dutch people made that! The ingenious use of windmills, dikes, and canals has created large flat, and fertile areas that, for hundreds of years, have been cultivated and protected from the encroaching sea.
Rijksmuseum
This Spring, we explore the art, cuisine, and culture of this tiny nation and that of neighboring northern Belgium – a region together known collectively as Flanders. We begin in Amsterdam, a city built on a network of canals with its tall and narrow brick houses reflected in the glimmering water. We include a guided tour of the world-famous Rijksmuseum, a day at the Royal Palaces to the east of the city, and a day exploring the countryside.
Next, our travels then take us over the border into Belgium where we make our base in the city of Bruges. Known as the “Venice of the North” due to the many picturesque canals crisscrossing the city, we will investigate the three main things for which the region is famous: art, beer, and chocolate!
Discover Europe has crafted an itinerary that highlights the museums and the landscapes of Holland and Belgium. The pace is never frantic, yet the days are pleasantly full and there are bound to be some unexpected diversions and adventures along the way. Your tour guide will provide background history, anecdotes, and insight into Dutch life as you travel around. Join us on an unforgettable journey through a country that is bursting with art and culture that is enjoyable year-round!
