To cruise the rivers and canals of Holland and Belgium in the spring is to glimpse the magic that inspired the Dutch and Flemish masters: the multi-colored tulips that were a national obsession, the fields of emerald green that blanket the land, and the delicate dance of sunlight and billowing clouds that so characterizes the Low Countries. There is no better time than April and May to share this magic.
