Luxury Cruises to Belgium

Belgium is surprisingly understated among its more flamboyant European neighbors. Yet a cruise to Belgium will immerse you in a world of cobbled town squares, ancient castles, poignant war memorials, and excitingly decadent cuisine. 

This compact, northern European country is known for many things. On a European cruise that visits Belgium, you’ll explore enchanting medieval towns like Bruges and Ghent, or the deeply moving World War I war memorials at Ypres. Cozy pubs, gabled houses, intricate gothic architecture, fine beers, cream-filled chocolate truffles—you’ll find no shortage of delights on a luxury cruise to Belgium.

Belgium Cruise Highlights

Medieval architecture.

Bruges is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Europe, where you’ll find a labyrinth of cobblestone lanes, tranquil canals, and ancient squares lined with half-timbered gabled houses. Gaze down on it all from the Belfort, the bell tower that looms over central Markt Square. Admire the intricately crenelated Stadhuis, or town hall, dating back to the 14th century, and the even older Basilica of the Holy Blood. In Ghent, visit Gravensteen Castle, complete with turrets and a moat.

Military History

Some 500,000 men lost their lives on the battlefields of Ypres during World War I, with a million more injured. Visit Tyne Cot, the largest British and Commonwealth war cemetery in the world, a deeply moving experience. Learn about the dramas and tragedies of the war in the museum here, and hear the story of John McCrae, who wrote the famous war poem “In Flanders Fields”.

Eating & Drinking

Snacking and grazing are essential activities in food-loving Belgium. Try the national dish, moules frites, which are juicy mussels with salty fries. Tuck into a deep Belgian waffle, rich with syrup, fruit, and a mountain of whipped cream. Join a beer-tasting tour, or visit a chocolatier’s workshop to see how the famous truffles are made and buy some to take home.

Featured Belgium Cruise Port

Bruges (Zeebrugge), Belgium

Belgium Cruise Itineraries

Visit Belgium on a four-night cruise that sails round-trip from Southampton, England, with Amsterdam also featured on the itinerary. Or explore the country as part of a 15-night transatlantic voyage from Fort Lauderdale to Amsterdam, calling at Bermuda, Cobh in Ireland, Portland and Southampton in England, and Le Havre in France. Cruises to Belgium call at the port of Zeebrugge, within easy reach of some of the country’s best-known attractions.

Itineraries

Why cruise to belgium with celebrity cruises.

On a Belgium cruise with Celebrity, you’ll see the sights of this fascinating country while sailing on one of our luxury cruise ships. Indulge in a treatment at The Spa, or take in a glittering show after dinner. Sample hand-crafted cocktails at the al fresco Sunset Bar, or try the many restaurants on board, not least the enchanting Le Petit Chef, complete with immersive animation. Choose The Retreat for the ultimate in luxury, including access to the elegant restaurant, Luminae at The Retreat, and a serene private lounge.

You’ll have access to the heart of the country’s most beautiful spots, Bruges and Ghent, as well as a chance to learn about World War I, one of the most poignant chapters of the 20th century. Whether you explore on foot, from a canal boat, by bicycle, or with frequent stops to sample the famous waffles and beer, your time in this intriguing country will be a memory to treasure.

The Treasures of North - Through two extraordinary countries: Belgium and The Netherlands

The boat was beautiful, room clean and comfortable. I enjoyed seeing the sights as we went along. Staff was friendly and helpful. English not spoken by other passengers and staff but everything we needed to know was translated. The food was excellent and unlike what we have here in the States. I am glad we took this trip.

River cruises in belgium and netherlands reviews.

Crucemundo people and food were great. Ship was clean and comfortable. We loved having the freedom to go on and off the boat when the boat was docked in port. Would have liked more time in Delft. Sunday and Monday the museums and shops were closed in Rotterdam. Having Tulip in the cruise name is a bit misleading since we don’t see any. Tour radar should not be so strict about the meals as we were brought back to the ship because they had to feed us on board. Transportation should be both to and from Amsterdam, considering you are advertising that the crew starts and ends in Amsterdam. No, Zaandam is NOT part of Amsterdam. We should be offered the optional excursions for purchase at the beginning of the cruise. There should be some minimal criteria for tour guides. Most were great, but a couple were not up to par.

Two Dutch and two Belgian metropolises - and in between two gems that can keep up culturally and historically at least as well when it comes to experiencing special moments: Amsterdam, Rotterdam and in between Hoorn, as well as Brussels and Antwerp, followed by Nijmegen. The name of our 7-night tour "Best of Holland & Belgium" is not an exaggeration. While with Amsterdam and Rotterdam two major Dutch cities are waiting to be discovered by you, in Hoorn in the province of North Holland you will come across perhaps the most beautiful port in the Netherlands, whose historical uniqueness is not only due to the Hoofdtoren, a tower from the 16th century. In the Belgian city of Antwerp, in addition to the historic city center, you will be particularly captivated by the lively cultural scene, while in Brussels you can look forward to modern architecture and, above all, world-famous cuisine.

RRhenish lifestyle between tradition and modernity - Düsseldorf inspires with diversity! Here art and Kultour lovers get just as enthusiastic as shopping enthusiasts, here the Media Harbor impresses with contemporary architecture as well as the historic Old Town. The old town makes Düsseldorf with more than 250 cozy pubs to the "longest bar in the world". There tastes not only the traditional Altbier! Not may miss a stroll along Königsallee, the world-famous strolling mile - or rather a visit to one of the numberrich sympathetic flea markets? And in the middle of it all: lots of Green and the Rhine with its riverside promenade to breathe easy . No wonder the VIVA Cruises family feels so right at home here!

Amsterdam is one of those cities that every traveler should have visited at least once in his life. No wonder, millions and millions of tourists flock to the city on the canals every year to enjoy the flood of sights and cultural offerings. The best way to discover Amsterdam is by taking a boat ride along the canals or a walk along the unique canals. Art lovers will be immediately drawn to one of the world-famous museums, such as the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum or the Van Gogh Museum. Party people will find their happiness in the nightlife and red light district De Wallen. And beer drinkers should by no means miss the Heineken Experience.

The city of Hoorn is located in Noord-Holland, not far from the Ijsselmeer. On the peninsula is the city center with its numerous shopping opportunities and stores. There is a West Frisian museum, as well as a railroad exhibition and rides in nostalgic trains. In the Julianapark you can see many rare plant species. The city also has two famous churches, the Koepelkerk and the Oosterkerk, located right in the city center. On the Käsmarkt, the market place of the city you can find many stores and buy the delicious Dutch cheese.

The port city of Rotterdam is located in the Netherlands and is one of the most interesting places in the world. The modern architecture plays a significant role in this. Among the impressive sights is the horseshoe-shaped market hall with the huge range of goods and the colorful hustle and bustle. In the old harbor with the striking white house, historic ships can be marveled at. For strolling, shopping and partying, the shopping mile Witte de Withstraat is an attraction. The futuristic-looking central station, the bag, also invites you to pub crawl and shop.

Manneken Pis or Atomium? Then they have arrived in Belgium's capital Brussels! The Manneken Pis is a fountain figure made of bronze, which is only about half a meter tall, but has been delighting people since 1650. In addition to the ancient buildings, Brussels is also known for its culinary, especially its fine chocolates, which are available in numerous chocolatiers. If enough buildings have been visited and the sweets extensively tested, a relaxing day can only be rounded off by a delicious beer. There are plenty of them in Brussels and as a beer lover you can choose your favorite beer from a selection of over 1,000 types. Whether Manneken Pis, Chocolatier or Leffe Blonde - in Brussels you will find everything your heart desires..

The heart of Flanders beats in Antwerp, the internationallen center of the diamond trade. And when it comes to finest chocolaterie and the lively cultural scene, it beats thateven a little faster. The home of numerous fashioncreators, painters and musicians was 400 years ago the largest city in Europe and testifies with its historic city center of a magnificent past: a look into the hall of the Main Station or to the luxury department store "Stadsfeestzaal" well worth it! In addition to thirteen UNESCO World Heritage Sites provide more As 50 baroque Rubens works in various museums picture-perfect for looking up.

The oldest city in the Netherlands exudes a quaint Dutch flair with its gabled houses, small cheese shops and delicacies on the "Grote Markt". In the narrow streets, yesterday and today go hand in hand. Therefore, a visit to the Gothic St. Stevenskerk, including the burial cellar, as well as a stroll along the shopping street "Lange Hezelstraat" should be on the sightseeing plan. With freshly fried Kibbelingen in the wintry Kronenburgerpark can be perfectly paused afterwards..

Belgium Luxury Vacations

With medieval architecture, cobblestone streets, fine dining and fine art, Belgium is a cultural experience in the broadest sense.

Sample some of the best beers on the planet – along with twice-fried Belgian fries, perfect waffles and luscious chocolate.

The Belgian travel experience is one of legendary hospitality, art history, winding canals and medieval bell towers. The core towns – Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent and Bruges – teem with busy town squares and markets, bustling bars and restaurants, and dozens of UNESCO sites. Art galleries and historical museums sit side by side, where you will wander around classic works from the likes of 14th-century art innovator Jan van Eyck, Baroque genius Peter Paul Rubens and surrealism master René Magritte. Outdoor adventure serves a mesmerizing miscellany in Belgium, too. There are wildly stunning caves to explore, charming river valleys, castles and rural chateaux, war monuments and memorial grounds, not to mention inviting sandy beaches on the North Sea coast. Stay refreshed: Take time to visit a working monastery, where monks have turned brewing beer into an artform.

• I booked a stateroom on Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas, one of the biggest cruise ships.
• For $2,000 a week, the 179-square-foot cabin had a private bathroom, a king-size bed, and a view.
• I thought I'd feel cramped in the room, but it had everything I needed and left no space unused.

In April 2022, I cruised on board Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas . At the time, it was the largest cruise ship in the world , but the title has since been replaced by Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas .

During my voyage, the ship sailed to Roatán, Honduras; Cozumel and Costa Maya in Mexico; and Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas .

For $2,000, I spent seven nights in an ocean-view stateroom on deck eight. The cruise was on sale, as it was originally priced at $3,000. Take a look inside the 179-square-foot space.

My room was a mid-tier cabin at the front of deck eight.

I booked a mid-tier room — a step above interior staterooms , which have no window. It's a category below staterooms with a balcony , and two steps below a suite.

My cabin was on the same deck as Central Park, an outdoor space with 20,000 plants.

I thought it was the most relaxing area on the ship, so I enjoyed being close by.

When I stepped inside my stateroom, I was surprised at how big it felt.

Right away, I thought the cabin made great use of a small space.

To operate most of the electricity in the room, I had to insert my room key into a slot on the wall.

I appreciated the energy-saving system.

On one side of the room, I had a mirror and a desk with several outlets to charge electronics with USB, American, and European ports.

I thought the desk was useful for eating, as well as storing daily flyers about the day's events.

Next to the desk, a set of drawers included a cabinet with a minifridge inside.

The desk drawers were mostly empty aside from a hair dryer, which I didn't end up using.

Across from the desk, I had a couch positioned in between two closets.

Inside each closet, I found a rack of hangers, shelving, and a small safe. I thought it was plenty of space for a weeklong journey

Next to the couch and desk area, a small bathroom used clever storage hacks, like placing the trash can and toilet paper under the counter.

In the bathroom, there were two glasses, a bar of soap, and a two-in-one hair and body wash.

At the top of the shower, a pullout clothing line was useful for drying my bathing suits.

Each night, my stateroom attendant replenished towels and brought flyers and schedules for the next day.

Sometimes, the towels were folded creatively to look like animals.

I noticed that my king-size bed at the back of the room was actually two twin beds pushed together.

All Royal Caribbean cabins come with this configuration, according to its website , so they may be separated for additional guests. I often woke up in the crevice.

A large flat-screen TV was mounted across from the bed with storage hooks below.

Skinny nightstands on either side of the bed held lamps, charging ports, and a room phone on one side.

Because I booked an ocean-view room, I was able to look out over the front of the ship from a window above my bed.

The window was equipped with an electronic shade that could be opened during the day for grand views and closed when I was ready to sleep.

While I thought the room might have been a tight space for a couple with a lot of luggage or a family, it was just right for me.

And watching the sun rise over the Caribbean Sea from the comfort of my room was the best part.

I went on 2 of Royal Caribbean's largest and newest cruise ships. I enjoyed them, but they're not for everyone.

• I've sailed on Royal Caribbean's newest and largest cruise ships, Wonder of the Seas and Icon of the Seas.
• Both mega-ships are jam-packed with amenities, dining options, and people.
• They might not be for you if you want a quiet cruise to unique destinations.  

Before booking a vacation at sea, travelers should always research the best cruise line and ship for their needs.

If you're looking for an ultra-cheap and fast trip, try Margaritaville at Sea . Craving something more upscale? Consider Oceania Cruises.

And if you're looking for high-end sailing to unique destinations, I'd suggest avoiding Royal Caribbean's mega-ships .

Royal Caribbean has become synonymous with giant, family-friendly cruise ships

According to its current expansion plan, by 2028, about a third of Royal Caribbean's fleet will consist of mega-ships.

The latest addition, the 1,196-foot-long and 248,663-gross-ton Icon of the Seas, set sail in January, unseating its less than two-year-old predecessor, Wonder of the Seas , as the world's largest cruise liner.

Together, the two vessels can accommodate a whopping 19,238 people — 4,554 crew and 14,684 guests.

At almost all times of the year, these throngs of travelers can be seen running around the ships' eight neighborhoods, lining up for waterslides, and indulging at a combined 29 bars and 48 eateries.

I've attended complimentary sailings on Wonder and Icon, the longest being three nights on the latter. From their colorful pool decks to their inescapable crowds, as a solo adult traveler, I was equal parts entertained, overwhelmed, and overstimulated the entire time.

But admittedly, I had fun. I do love a good waterslide — and Wonder has three of them, while Icon has six.

If you plan on cruising with your children — and if they, like me, love activities like rock climbing and mini-golfing — Royal Caribbean's mega-ships could be your best option.

Its two largest and newest vessels are jam-packed with things to do. They each have more than 20 dining options and dozens of unique activities, a shortlist of which includes ice-skating rinks, ziplines, and shopping mall-like walkways.

But don't expect a peaceful retreat. The rowdy bar-hopping adults and screaming children at the water playground aren't exactly conducive to a relaxing vacation.

Mega-vessels might not be for you if you want a quiet, itinerary-focused cruise

If you want a relaxing and upscale vacation — maybe one that doesn't involve crowds of children — Royal Caribbean's behemoth vessels shouldn't be your top choice.

There are many ways to have a luxury vacation on Icon of the Seas . But unless you want to pay for upcharged amenities at every turn, you might be better off spending more upfront to reserve a more premium cruise line — especially if you're interested in cruising for the destinations, and not the ships.

After all, like most of Royal Caribbean's largest vessels, both Icon and Wonder are exclusively sailing in the Caribbeans.

Many desirable destinations like French Polynesia have set restrictions on cruises , including limits on ship size, amid concerns of pollution and overcrowding.

If stopping at these ports — or really anywhere outside the Caribbean — is at the top of your vacation wish list, you'll have to prioritize a smaller Royal Caribbean ship or go with higher-end companies like Oceania , Silversea, and Regent Seven Seas.

You might not get a waterpark, but at least you'll get a quieter vacation to destinations no mega-ship will likely ever be allowed to visit.
