Cobblestone & Canal Run – London, Bruges & Amsterdam

About this cruise

You sail from Le Havre (Paris) on October 22, 2026 and spend 7 nights visiting Southampton, Hamburg, Zeebrugge and Rotterdam. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. The pace alternates neatly: port day, sea day, port day, sea day. 4 stops with a breather between each one. The Northern Europe & Scandinavia route takes in United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium and Netherlands, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 12 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Preziosa keeps you well fed. 7 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
