    Arrive earlier and visit the Hanseatic city of Hamburg*.

    Thursday, 05.05.2016

    Texel/Netherlands, 13.00 – 18.00 hrs

    Texel/Netherlands
    At almost 23 km long, this is the largest of the West Frisian Islands and will show you its most beautiful side during a scenic journey*. Views of dunes as far as the eye can see, the historic lighthouse and the charming centre, Den Burg, promise a day of varied experiences. The island has a storm to thank for its natural spectacle: when the waves broke through the chain of dunes in 1851, they left behind a saltwater lake that now provides a habitat for seabirds. Take a tour* and immerse yourself in the secrets of the De Slufter nature reserve. You can also find out about the coastal wildlife in the Ecomare information centre*, which provides fascinating information about the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Get close to its most prominent residents, young seals, through the glass of the underwater aquarium.

    Friday, 06.05.2016

    Antwerp/Belgium, 8.00 – 17.00 hrs

    Antwerp/Belgium
    In this small Flemish coastal city, you will be tempted by diamonds, fashion and the smell of waffles. Walk from the Grote Markt with its impressive town hall to the medieval Vlaeykensgang, or admire the art collection in the former home of Rubens*. The artist himself illustrated many of the books that were printed in the only remaining book printing works from the Renaissance: visit the Plantin-Moretus Museum* and take a look at the world’s oldest printing presses. In romantic Brugge*, the world appears to have stood still for centuries. Be fascinated by Michelangelo’s Madonna in the Church of Our Lady, and a canal trip* will surely be enough to create a place in your heart for this city of medieval gables and towers.

Wave to the numerous visitors enthusiastically celebrating along the piers and look forward to an exhilarating party that is certain to provide an exuberant atmosphere once again. The next morning, you can head home or remain in Hamburg* to get to know the metropolis on the Elbe even better – for example, on a tour of the port.
