Creator's Key Takeaways

One of my favorite ports to call because the arrival is just looking so fantastic.

I never had dinner in a buffet style on this whole cruise, which was one week, and I was every evening in a different restaurant.

I decided to not leave the ship here in Zebruga because I've been here quite a few times and the city of Zebuga, it's just a very small port is not that interesting.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Walk from the cruise terminal to the city center in Rotterdam; no shuttles needed.
Visit Rotterdam instead of Amsterdam when docked there for architecture and city beauty.
Take pictures of your ship from the Arasmus Bridge in Rotterdam.
Book restaurant reservations early on AIDAnova as popular venues fill up fast.
