Amsterdam
You'll arrive at the ship between noon and 2 PM near Amsterdam Central Station. After getting settled, head out around 2:30 PM for your first bike ride through Oude Wetering.

Along the way, check out the newly expanded Flood museum built inside 4 former caissons, those large floating concrete boxes used to fill gaps in broken dikes. You'll finish in Zierikzee, an ancient harbour that's still very active today.

Middelburg or Vlissingen
From Zierikzee in Zeeland, cycle about 55 km across Walcheren, the biggest island in the region. Your destination is either Middelburg, the capital of Zeeland, or Vlissingen (Flushings in English), which sits at the entrance to the Westerschelde estuary and serves as the gateway to Antwerp's port.

Ghent, Belgium
Leave Zeeland and head toward the Westerschelde estuary, the main waterway connecting Antwerp to the sea. You'll cycle along scenic winding inner dikes lined with trees, then take a boat across the Westerschelde to reach Zeeuws Vlaanderen in southern Western Holland. From there, either cycle or sail to Ghent, a medieval city with an active town centre full of interesting squares and buildings, the Gravensteen castle, churches, and St. Baafs cathedral. The ship moors right in Ghent, and an evening walk through town is worth doing. Total biking distance runs about 40 to 45 km, or potentially more if you're an experienced cyclist.

If you haven't explored Ghent's town centre yet, do that first. Between the two cities, the route follows quiet roads through typical Flemish countryside with small-scale fields, farmhouses, and little villages. Expect about 35 km if you sail partway, or around 60 km for the full cycling route.
