AMSTERDAM → LONDON / HMS BELFAST
5 Nights on Star Pride
This Quick Getaway links four countries across northern Europe, connecting Amsterdam and London through Belgium and the rivers of Normandy. Bruges, one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Europe, is less than 20 minutes by train from Oostende. Rouen follows, the UNESCO-designated Norman capital where a late-night stay extends time ashore into the evening: Paris by train, Monet's cathedral, and half-timbered streets that have barely changed since the Middle Ages. Honfleur gives access to the D-Day coast and the new Bayeux Tapestry Museum before the Seine gives way to the Thames, sailing beneath Tower Bridge and arriving overnight alongside HMS Belfast, one of London's most central small-ship berths.
Popular Highlights
Depart Amsterdam, one of Europe's great canal cities, from a berth in the heart of the historic Golden Age waterfront.
Dock in Oostende, the gateway to Bruges, one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Europe. Bruges' canal network, Flemish Gothic architecture, and world-class chocolate and beer culture are less than 20 minutes from the port by train.
Cruise the Seine inland to Rouen, a small ship experience, arriving with a late evening to explore the cathedral Monet painted obsessively, the half-timbered old town, and Rouen's exceptional Norman cuisine. Paris is reachable by train for those who want a late-night city.
Dock in Honfleur, one of France's most picturesque harbor towns and the primary gateway to the D-Day beaches, the new Bayeux Tapestry Museum, and the Norman countryside. The waterfront restaurants are ideal for a long Norman lunch of seafood, Camembert, and Calvados.
Sail the Thames through the heart of London, a small ship exclusive, passing beneath Tower Bridge, before an overnight stay alongside HMS Belfast puts the entire city within easy reach.
Amsterdam, the Venice of the North, where more than 1,500 bridges arch gracefully over scenic canals. The stately 17th century homes of Dutch merchants line the canals and museums are everywhere, filled with masterpieces from the Dutch Golden Age. Most of the sightseeing essentials are conveniently collected in the Canal Ring, the central area of the city which is designated as a UNESCO site. Here you'll find the Anne Frank House, the Royal Palace, the Red Light District, and most of the museums. Mind all the bicycles!
This popular beach resort draws thousands of Belgians and British daytrippers for its sun, sailing, surfing, and casino. As a busy ferry port for more than 150 years, Oostende also provides quick access to Bruges and Ghent, two of Belgium's most attractive destinations.
Sitting on the estuary where the Seine River meets the English Channel, the charming character of this harbor town has been the subject of artists like Claude Monet and Eugene Boudin. The 15th century St. Catherine's church is an interesting vaulted timber structure built by shipbuilders. And a walk along the edge of the Honfleur Estuary will pass town gardens, beaches, and a view of the Normandy Bridge. You can also find the intriguing local cider along the Route du Cidre.

Sail the storied River Thames into or out of the heart of London, cruising beneath iconic Tower Bridge—a privilege only smaller ships can enjoy—and passing the Tower of London, the historic Royal Observatory at Greenwich marking the Prime Meridian, and the beautifully preserved Cutty Sark, the legendary 19th-century tea clipper. As you continue eastward, the skyline gradually gives way to the open waters of the English Channel.
London, one of the world's top destinations, is a city begging to be explored. Steeped in history, the well-known sites of Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Trafalgar Square beckon, or get a modern perspective from the top of the London Eye. This cosmopolitan city offers all the world cuisines you're used to, but there are still places to find traditional British fare like bangers and mash or shepherds' pie.
