Andre Rieu New Year's Concert In Amsterdam

Itinerary

Day 1

Fly to Amsterdam, meet your tour manager and transfer to your chosen hotel. You'll then have the rest of the day free to explore Amsterdam or to relax before tomorrow's excitement begins. For early arrivals, return coach transfers into Amsterdam will be available in the afternoon.

Day 2

After breakfast, you’ll travel to central Amsterdam where you’ll have the morning and early afternoon free to shop and sightsee. Visit famous sights such as the Van Gogh Museum, the Royal Palace and the renowned Rijksmuseum, or perhaps enjoy our optional private cheese and wine cruise. In the evening, our coach will transfer you to the Ziggo Dome – Amsterdam's largest and most famous indoor concert venue – and you'll take your seat for a spectacular New Year's concert performance by André Rieu. The Waltz King will be accompanied by his Johann Strauss Orchestra, choir and soloists, as well as several special guests, and the evening promises to be filled with their trademark waltzes, beautiful melodies from opera, musicals, film and classical music, as the magical atmosphere of Vienna's 19th-century Dance Halls is lovingly recreated. After this not-to-be-missed experience, our coach will return you to the hotel.

Day 3

Transfer back to the airport to board your flight home, taking with you a host of memories of a very special break and André Rieu's unforgettable New Year's concert. Back to top
