Amsterdam
.
We’ll kick off our adventure together in Amsterdam, gathering for a welcome dinner on the first evening. I’ll be flying from Toronto on July 2 and would love to have some of you join me; it’s always more fun to start the trip together! We’ll spend one night in a centrally located 4-star hotel, with breakfast included. We'll have time to explore Amsterdam whether it’s strolling along the canals, visiting world-class museums, or simply soaking up the charm of the city from a café terrace. The following morning, you’ll have more time to enjoy Amsterdam before we set off mid-afternoon. I’ll also share a list of optional activities for anyone who’d like a little inspiration.
Bruges
.
Our adventure continues in the fairytale city of Bruges, where we’ll spend two nights in a central 4-star hotel with daily breakfast. To fully immerse ourselves in its medieval magic, two guided excursions are included. We'll join a local expert for a walking tour through the city's historic heart, uncovering the stories and secrets behind landmarks like the bustling Market Square. We will also take to the water for a scenic canal cruise, for a picture-perfect view of the city from a unique perspective. Beyond these planned activities, our schedule allows for plenty of time to explore together, creating the perfect opportunity to bond with new friends while climbing the Belfry, sharing Belgian chocolates, or discovering hidden gems.
