Arnhem river cruises, Netherlands

What's great about Arnhem river cruises?

Arnhem makes a good first impression, thanks to its up-to-date, shop-filled centre. Sprinklings of bright-green public parks are in the mix, too, so prime picnic territory’s in good supply. As one of the major players during the Second World War, Arnhem doesn’t hold back with its history, either. The city took to the world stage during Operation Market Garden in 1944, which you can learn about during a guided tour. And although a lot of it was destroyed during the fighting, the city’s since been rebuilt and put all its effort into art. Museums and galleries are scattered along the Rhine, and even the train station’s been given an abstract makeover that’s worthy of a photo stop.
