Sail Date: June 2024
Review for a Alaska Cruise on Zaandam
The Tracy Arm Inlet excursion was amazing. Highly recommend. I saw two black bears, coastal mountain goats, harbor seals, steller seals, many whales, and a large variety of birds-- not to mention gorgeous terrain. The Skagway/Whitepass Train, however, is really only for those who have not lived in mountainous states such as Montana, Colorado, and Oregon. The train tour guides were great, but I ... Read More
Review for a Alaska Cruise on Noordam
The cruise and ports were fantastic. The food was average at best. Avoid the Lido market use the dining room instead. Do not buy the Coca-Cola package…it is a total rip off there is no place to get Coke onboard other than a lounge where if you ask for a Coke they get real annoyed. Our room stewards were the best part of the trip. Service in the Lido Market was poor. This is the second time we ... Read More
Review for a Alaska Cruise on Koningsdam
This is our second cruise with Holland America to Alaska and first time on the Koningsdam. Firstly, this ship is beautiful and modern. All areas were spotless and public areas were all comfortable. The Entertainment Director, Grant, was always seen with a smile and energetic in the events he was running. All staff was friendly and keenly interested in conversing with us and always making sure that ... Read More
Review for a Alaska Cruise on Eurodam
The food service and quality were well below average. We have cruised on many other lines. The dit down dining was slow and the food just mediocre. You had to order all courses as soon as you were seated. Drinks, like iced tea, took 45 minutes after reminding the waiter numerous times. Alcohol took forever. A typical sit down dinner in the dining room took 90 minutes. The Pinnacle was better, but ... Read More
Embarkation and debarkation in Vancouver went really well for our cruise on the Koningsdam. The Crew were the best. Very attentive and were a big plus. We had an inside room which was very good. Very functional and no sound other than voices in the hall. People need to speak softer late at night. Food was average at best. The lido buffet is too small an area. Not enough variety compared to to ... Read More
Review for a Alaska Cruise on Westerdam
The overall cruise experience was disappointing mostly due to dining. The food options are very limited and crowded. The catch all is the Lido which is a buffet mostly. It's always very crowded with lots of dirty tables so open tables are very difficult to find. The lines for food at Lido are always long and slow. There is only one specialty coffee option on the ship and it's very slow with ... Read More

Traveled with children
First of all I would say we had a wonderful time on the cruise. Our room attendant, Yudi, was great. Some of the things that were not up to par in my opinion 1. the food overall was good, but the ship was constantly running out of or did not have available for serving at various times; bacon, ranch dressing, coffee, coffee cups, syrup, waffles, cones for ice cream. 2. Service for ... Read More
As first-time cruisers we didn't know what to expect. Good news is that Holland America hires great people. Their staff are customer service oriented and try very hard to make you happy! Tyo did a great job on deck 8 as did Thalia in Spa Services. Thalia did a great job on my hair. I got several compliments on it while on-board. My husband had a mani-pedi and said it was the best he's ... Read More
Background: I am 22 years old and have cruised on Carnival, Celebrity, NCL, and Princess. My mom and I chose this cruise solely for the itinerary and for the affordability -- we booked extremely last minute (2 days before embark…). This review encompasses experiences and opinions from both of us. To start: We flew into Anchorage day of and took the ACT bus straight from the airport to the ... Read More

Bookings Open For Holland America’s 2022 Alaska Cruises
Sarah Bretz, Contributor
- January 14, 2021
In 2022, Holland America Line is celebrating 75 years in Alaska — longer than any other cruise line. And bookings are now open for the season’s Alaska voyages and Land+Sea Journeys.
From April to October 2022, passengers can set sail with Holland America in the Last Frontier aboard Eurodam, Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam, Oosterdam, and Zuiderdam.
Those who want to further explore Alaska can choose from 16 different Land+Sea Journeys, which combine a three, four, or seven-night Alaska cruise with an inland exploration of Denali National Park.
“It’s incredible to think that Holland America Line has been taking guests to Alaska longer than it’s been a state, and because 2022 is our 75th year, we want to allow plenty of time for guests to plan ahead.” said Gus Antorcha, Holland America Line’s president. “Alaska is a destination where if you’ve never been, it’s on your bucket list; and if you have been, you’re eager to go back.”
Voted #1 Cruise Line in Alaska
Holland America was named the top pick for Alaska cruises in the 2020 AFAR Travelers’ Awards for the third time in five years.
And in addition to the AFAR award, the line was named top pick for Alaska in the 2020 Porthole Cruise Magazine Editor-in-Chief Awards, 2019 Cruise Critic Cruisers’ Choice Destination Awards, and 2019 TravelAge West Wave Awards Editor’s Pick.
Koningsdam was also voted top mid-sized cruise ship in the 2020 USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards.
New and Notable for 2022
- Special onboard celebrations for the 75th Anniversary
- Every Alaska cruise includes a visit to one or more of Alaska’s iconic glacier destinations: Glacier Bay National Park, College Fjord, Hubbard Glacier, and the Twin Sawyer Glaciers of Tracy Arm
- Seven-night “Glacier Discovery Northbound” and “Glacier Discovery Southbound” itineraries between Whittier, Alaska and Vancouver, Canada aboard Nieuw Amsterdam and Noordam.
- Seven-night “Alaska Inside Passage” cruises roundtrip from Vancouver on Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam, and Zuiderdam.
- Seven-night “Alaskan Explorer” cruises roundtrip from Seattle aboard Eurodam and Oosterdam
- All ships in Alaska feature expanded onboard programming: engaging with an Alaska naturalist, cruises with Glacier Bay take on a National Park Ranger and Huna native speaker, and special presentations on topics such as Alaska’s bush pilots and the famous Iditarod race.

2022 Denali Land+Sea Journeys
Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam, and Zuiderdam will offer Land+Sea Journeys ranging from nine to 18 days. All Denali Land+Sea Journeys include a seven-night Glacier Discovery cruise featuring Glacier Bay and the Inside Passage, as well as either Hubbard Glacier or College Fjord and up to three nights at the McKinley Chalet Resort at the entrance to Denali National Park.
All two and three-night Denali itineraries include the longer Tundra Wilderness Tour into Denali National Park, which provides great wildlife and mountain viewing opportunities.
Each Land+Sea Journey includes a scenic ride on the luxury-domed McKinley Explorer, including select itineraries that take guests from their ship to their Denali hotel room on the same day.
2022 Yukon+Denali Land+Sea Journeys
Holland America is the only cruise line to offer an Alaska cruise combined with an overland tour to both Denali and the Yukon. These itineraries include all the highlights of the Denali Journeys, plus more.
Each Yukon+Denali Journey includes either a three or four-night Inside Passage cruise on Koningsdam or Zuiderdam , or a seven-night Glacier Discovery cruise on Nieuw Amsterdam or Noordam.
Every Yukon+Denali Journey includes the services of a professional Journey Host, as well as a ride on the McKinley Explorer railcars, and select itineraries add on the White Pass & Yukon Route railroad from Skagway as well.
Travelers on every Yukon Journey will also enjoy two nights in Dawson City.
And a tour on the Klondike Spirit paddlewheeler takes guests along the Yukon River past stunning tall pines, historic towns and wildlife.
