About The Port Of Arnhem
Set along the Rhine at the edge of the Veluwe Nature Reserve, Arnhem pairs an easy riverside setting with dense forest and rolling parkland just beyond the city center. Promenades trace the water's edge, offering a gentle introduction to a region as valued for its natural beauty as for its layered past.
The city holds a significant place in World War II history, having been the site of a major Allied campaign in 1944 that contributed to the eventual end of the conflict in Europe. The Airborne Museum, housed in a historic hotel used during the operation, gives context to those events for visitors who wish to learn more. Arnhem's town center lies within reach of the pier area, making it a practical base for exploring both its wartime heritage and the surrounding Veluwe countryside.
Pavlus Recommendations
How our planners would spend a day in Arnhem.
Tour the Airborne Museum
Housed in the historic Hartenstein Hotel used during the 1944 campaign, exhibits and personal accounts bring the Battle of Arnhem to life; allow at least an hour with a guide.
Walk the John Frost Bridge
The rebuilt span over the Rhine marks the heart of the 1944 fighting and offers river views a short walk from the town center.
Wander the Veluwe Woodlands
Just beyond the city, forested trails and open heath make for an easy escape into rolling parkland, ideal for a quiet walk before returning to the ship.
