More than 125 itineraries, five continents and 15 ships – that is the 2011/12 Holland America cruise programme.
Itineraries cover diverse locations such as the Amazon, Alaska, Canada and New England, Asia and the Pacific, the Caribbean, Hawaii, Bermuda, Europe, Mexico, Tahiti, South America and the Panama Canal.
Ryndam will, for the second year in a row, be cruising from Dover. The round-trip cruises will offer the UK market a range of premium no-fly cruise holidays.
The season will kick off on the 17th April next year with a 19-night cruise to Portugal, Spain and the Canaries. That will be followed by a range of one and two-week cruises to the Fjords and the Baltic region. There will also be a rather unique 13-day North Cape and Fjords cruise departing on the 10th May. This particular cruise will sail as far North as Honningsvag, which is located in the Arctic Circle.
On the 21st July the Ryndam departs from Dover on a 20-day Mediterranean cruise that promises to be an unforgettable experience.
All UK round-trip passengers who book ocean view cabins and above qualify for free parking at the Dover port.
Holland America will have a total of seven ships in European waters for the 2012 summer season. The Prinsendam, Eurodam, Rotterdam and Ryndam will concentrate on Northern Europe and the Baltic region, while the Amsterdam and Noordam will depart on a series of seven to 24-night cruises from Venice, Barcelona and Rome.
