Dock this morning in the 13th century town of Veere, considered one of the most stunning in the Netherlands. Known as the ‘Pearl of Walcheren’, it is dotted with striking heritage buildings like the magnificent Grote Kerk, the elegant Town Hall, and the unique Schotse Huizen (Scottish Houses) that represent the town’s strong history of trade with Scotland.
Scenic Freechoice:
Choose from the following for your morning excursion:
Guided tour of Veere: Travel to the nearby town of Veere for a guided tour of its many charms, including the port area, Scottish merchant houses, impressive church and 15th century town hall. Enjoy some free time before returning to the ship.
Excursion to the Delta Works: This fascinating series of dams was designed to protect the population on the Delta plain from flooding. As well as being an impressive feat of engineering, it’s essential in protecting low-lying areas of the Netherlands from surges and flooding.
On board later today, you can savour locally grown oysters in the ultimate 'farm-to-table' experience, with the shellfish brought directly from the icy waters of the North Sea.
