Introduction to Port

Port Arnhem offers a distinctive Dutch river port experience that stands apart from other cruise stops by turning a port call into a curated immersion in Gelderland’s culture, nature, and design. Its signature experiences invite guests to step directly from ship to the city's living heritage: a stroll along the Rhine to Arnhem’s Open Air Museum, where historic farmsteads blend with modern craft; a guided visit to Burgers' Zoo for immersive wildlife encounters; and a moving battlefield heritage tour to Oosterbeek’s Airborne Museum and the John Frost Bridge, commemorating the WWII Operation Market Garden. From there, guests can combine gentle riverside cycling with optional excursions into the Hoge Veluwe National Park and the Kröller-Mötter Museum, or into nearby Nijmegen and Wageningen’s university-town charm. The port supports intimate mid-sized and premium river ships with modern, eco-conscious facilities: deep-drafted quay access tailored for passenger comfort, shore-power connections to reduce emissions, sheltered gangways, and a dedicated passenger concourse that keeps the experience flowing from dock to town. Onboard, ships enjoy Dutch hospitality at its best—seasonal, locally sourced dining programs, multilingual crews, enrichment lectures on Dutch design, art and history, wellness amenities, and flexible shore-excursion desks that partner with local guides to tailor experiences for every pace and interest. Arnhem thus merges the ease of a compact walkable port with the richness of a destination that feels both timeless and freshly crafted, delivering a cruise day that is as memorable for its landscapes and heritage as for its comfort and service.
