Holland & Belgium By 1st Class Barge
April 26-May 5, 2022
Join Classical Music hosts, Peter and Kathleen van de Graaff for a colorful adventure to Holland and Belgium
We hope you'll join us on our 11th Earthbound Expeditions journey!
We plan to tiptoe thru the tulips and travel back in time to a bygone era: Holland’s 17th century Golden Age; Dutch ships plied the seven seas, Rembrandt painted endless masterpieces, and merchants moved the nation’s bounty inland by canal.
Our intimate, tailor-made expedition by first class barge will be an enriching travel experience for curious and like-minded travelers who love classical music, beautiful gardens, extraordinary art collections, markets, food and history.
Tickets to the Keukenhof Tulip Festival and a classical concert at the celebrated Concertgebouw are included, all at a leisurely, relaxing pace. This trip also aligns with the International Floriade Horticultural Exposition, which takes place only once a decade, so our timing is perfect!
Being a barge, space is limited. Come join us on what co-founder Matthew Brumley counts as one of his all-time favorite trips!
Hope to see you there,
Peter and Kathleen van de Graaff, Classic Music hosts
