THE SHIP - MV Advance
April 3-10 Sailing. ID90 Travel Members on board!
Two of our ID90 Travel Friends and Family members are currently on MV Advance and loving it! See below the images and comments they have provided so far.
Check back each day to see what they have been up to.
Day 1 - Boarded the ship in Rotterdam, Netherlands
The top deck bar sinks into the lower floor at night😲
Lunch menu on day of departure
Day 2 - Nijmegen, Netherlands
Day 3 - Maastricht, Netherlands
Getting directions from the locals
Rush hour in Maastricht!
Day 4 - Antwerp, Belgium
Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp
Antwerp Town Square
Heembeekkaai, Brussels - Chocolate tour and making class - The BEST excursion!
Day 5 - Dordrecht, Netherlands
Keukenhof Gardens are only open for 2 months a the year. But in that 2 months, 1.5 million visitors will marvel at the tulips and other spring flowers. Entry is 20euro and parking is 8euro. You will get to see it all in about 3-4 hours, if you are not stopping and taking a million photos, like me! 😊
On your drive out to the gardens, you will pass fields and fields of tulips. These tulips will never be cut and sold, they are left to die so that the nutrients go back into the bulbs, which will eventually be sold.
Day 7 - Rotterdam, Netherlands
The Dordrecht canals, just like Venice
All crew and servers do what ever they can to please you…with a smile! Extremely well trained. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
One of the coolest book store/Cafe in the world!
Day 6 - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Stunning private dinning room
We were hungry by 3pm when we got on the boat. They made us a veggie burger, even though it was not on the menu.
The dinners are all very tasty but the portions are small. For us, this is perfect as we order extra plates so we get to try additional dishes.
Maastricht Market
Canal tour transportation
Hanging with the locals
The tube elevator
Gives new meaning to Dinner and a Movie!
If you buy nothing else…chocolate is a must!
Hi There 👋🏼
Excellent Room Service!
40 Tulips for 35 Euro 😲
The leaning church of Dordrecht
The five famous free thinkers
Built for the first expo that was held after World War 2
A steamship in the canals
Floating homes. 2 stories above water, and 1 level below water.
We were welcomed by 6 of the crew members who took the luggage out of our hands and replaced it with a cocktail. We were off to a fabulous start!
The ship looks brand new and is absolutely stunning. 5 Star all the way! From the marble bathroom walls to the fixtures and furnishings; they spared no expense. And the bottle of wine and Transcend Cruises caps were a nice touch.
Lovely concierge Alina and restaurant manager Antonio. Antonio showed us around the ship and told us there were 57 crew and only 110 guests. Only 2 cabins with adjoining doors (and we're in one of them).
