Witness the magic of blooming Holland outside of spring – a once-in-a-decade travel opportunity with Scenic 

It’s just six months to go until Holland’s once-in-a-decade horticultural display begins – Floriade Expo 2022. There’s something irrepressibly joyful about nature springing to life, and nowhere more so than in the Netherlands. 

Taking place just once a decade, Floriade Expo offers nature-loving and sustainability enthusiasts the perfect once-in-a-lifetime travel  opportunity to witness the incredible horticulture and garden displays that the country is so famous for, outside of springtime.  

Featuring an encyclopaedic array of exotic plants, innovative architecture and intriguing infrastructure from across the globe – guests can choose to experience the latest circular infrastructure essential for tomorrow’s green cities as they stroll the expansive arboretum, sample health-promoting foods and take in the stunning bird’s-eye view as they soar over the exhibition in a 850-metre cable car. 

Luxury all-inclusive river cruise line, Scenic (www.scenic.co.uk), is offering guests the opportunity to visit the iconic event on its eight-day Dutch sights and Belgian delights itinerary. Sailing a return journey from Amsterdam, guests will also enjoy a guided tour through the architectural capital of the Netherlands, Rotterdam, before visiting a local oyster farm for a tour and tasting and an exploration of the diamond-filled streets of Antwerp. Set within the 17th century Dutch reformed church of Oosterkerk, guests will be treated to a special choir performance – an exclusive experience for guests travelling with Scenic.

Alternatively, guests can add a visit to the expo to the beginning or end of selected European river cruises, including the 15-day Jewels of Europe itinerary.
