Blooming September

In the southern Netherlands, they are very enthusiastic about their flower parades. This is a long tradition, often passed down from the grandparents of the current generation. We feature 3 parades, Zundert (5 September 2027), Lichtenvoorde and Valkenswaard (both on the 11 September 2027). On Sunday evening and Monday the floats can be viewed. We include entrance and, when available, seats in the grandstand to view the parade.

Traditional Flower Parades • Grandstand Seating • Beautiful 'S-Hertogenbosch

Day 1 A short Channel crossing to France and then north to Holland for a 3 night stay.

Day 2 Visit 's-Hertogenbosch, capital of Brabant. This 12th century fortified city is a gem with its gothic cathedral and rich merchant houses. It is possible to take a canal boat trip on the waterways underneath the city. The wide selection of cafés and restaurants reflect the citizens' infamous love of the good things in life.

Day 3 See the dazzling floral floats, full of gorgeous blooms, each participating in the wonderful Bloemencorso, from the grandstand seating. These are magical events with all kinds of festivities including music and street performances to enjoy. The local bars and restaurants join in with special offers and activities.

Day 4 Homeward bound, stopping in Bruges or Gent before a short Channel crossing to Dover and home.
