Colours of the Netherlands and Belgium Cruise Review
Colours of the Netherlands and Belgium Cruise FAQs
What type of climate should I expect?
Europe boasts a varied climate, offering something special every season. Spring brings blossoming landscapes, while summer is warm and ideal for coastal days or exploring lively cities. Autumn’s mild weather is perfect for vineyard tours and historic site visits. Even in winter, temperatures remain gentle compared to other parts of Europe, making it a comfortable season for museum visits and cosy café stops. No matter when you visit, Europe’s seasonal charms add a unique flair to your experience.
Can I do my own shore excursions?
Participation in shore excursions is at your discretion. If you would like to explore independently, your Cruise Director can make suggestions as to places to visit. You must make sure to return to the ship before it departs.
Visa Requirements for Europe
From mid-2025, all visitors entering 30 countries within Europe for stays of up to 90 days will be required to complete an electronic travel authorisation (ETIAS) before entry. Please note that some European countries outside the European Schengen Area are also included in this scheme.
