Garden & Nature

Springtime in Holland and Belgium gives new meaning to the word "colour". With seasonal blossoms ready to burst, the fields of Holland and Belgium erupt in a spectacle of epic proportions for the ultimate garden party. An Avalon Garden and Nature cruise reveals the most beautiful gardens and parks throughout the region, from the 70-acre Keukenhof Gardens to the secret gardens of Amsterdam. Glide through a kaleidoscope of flowering colour on the canals and waterways and see windmills standing watch over a sea of tulips that seem to go on forever.
