Antwerp & Cologne Day Trip
Day Trip Details
At the designated time, we'll meet at De Ruijterkade Street, number 151, to begin this day trip to Antwerp and Cologne, two of Europe's most important gems.
Our first stop will be Antwerp. We'll start exploring the Grote Markt, the main square, surrounded by spectacular Renaissance buildings that tell the story of past centuries. In the center, you'll see the Brabo Fountain, a symbol of the local legend of a brave hero who defeated a giant.
From here, you'll admire the Cathedral of Our Lady, a Gothic monument that houses artistic treasures, including masterpieces by the Baroque painter Pedro Pablo Rubens. Its intricate stain-glassed windows and towering spire that dominate the city's skyline will leave you breathless.
After soaking up the art and history, we'll take a stroll along the Diamond Quarter, known worldwide for its tradition of diamond cutting and trading. We'll explore its streets filled with elegant jewels and learn about the fascinating legacy of this industry in Antwerp.
You'll have free time to grab a bite to eat with a dish of Belgium cuisine. Afterward, our adventure will continue toward Germany, where the iconic Cologne Cathedral will greet us with its characteristic Gothic architecture. Declared a World Heritage Site, this temple is a masterpiece that has withstood the passage of time.
Next, we'll explore Cologne's old town, which stands out due to its charming cobblestone streets and picturesque buildings. We'll marvel at the Great Saint Martin Church, a prime example of Romanesque architecture, and cross the Hohenzollern Bridge, known for its padlocks of love. Here, you'll also enjoy the stunning views of the Rhine River and the Cologne Cathedral. It'll be the perfect place for some unforgettable pictures!
Finally, we'll return to Amsterdam, where we'll wrap up this 14-hour day trip.
