Review for a Alaska Cruise on Westerdam

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s
Did the typical research for our first cruise and “it” (whoever it is) that Holland America was a good line. Little did I understand that the average age of the passengers was probably 70. The cabin was one of 2 highlights of the so called cruise. It felt more like a ferry than a cruise. The other highlight was an excursion to the Hubbard Glacier (but be prepared to pay $200-1,000 per person for ...

In 2019 we booked an Alaskan cruise, that was rescheduled three times, until finally landing in July, 2022. We had an unbelievable deal for two extended balcony cabins, and it was a wonderful cruise. It was me and my husband (56 years old each), and two of my kids (28 & 24). This year, my brother and his wife (58) and their kids and significant others (all four are 28) jumped on the cruise in ...

We LOVED our cruise on the WESTERDAM by Holland America Lines..... From the fantastic room to our cabin steward, to the shore excursions and onboard entertainment, everything was top notch.
We enjoyed the Exec talks by Rebecca! Gage, our activities director was very engaging and fun, line dancing was a hoot and the 5K to support Ukranian Refugees was a blast. The 8 piece band in the BBKings ...

I know so many people always complain about Holland America about having low energy, geared to older people, not enough activities, etc. however, I feel that there is a reason. Some people want I high energy vacation, if so, pick Carnival or Royal Caribbean. If you want several different restaurants, then pick NCL. If you want luxury, then pick Seabourn. We have different cruise lines to ...

We sailed on the Westerdam June 12-19 as part of a 13 person family trip. Here is a summary and highlights / lowlights:
We are a couple in late 50’s with 2 of our kids (30, 27) and one of their spouses with us.
Embarkation was at pier 91 in Seattle and was terrible. Despite doing verifly app, Canada app, doing pre-Covid test appropriately and completing Navigator app, Holland really ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s
We had never cruised before. This was a new experience for us and every person we spoke to stated how wonderful it was. The room was small we had an interior on deck 7. Food was very good. We did not have issue at onboarding but tip for newbies, if it says you can board at 1pm don't wait that long we got there at 11am and it was full on its way to boarding. We got Verify done but the Arrive Can ...

We wanted to embark at the Port of Vancouver, Canada as it is a short flight from our home. The repositioning cruise offered a fantastic fare and gave us a chance to visit Japan. We planned to join a land tour once we disembarked in Yokohama. This was our first ocean crossing and it was surprisingly uneventful (weather-wise). Except Typhoon Hagibis was scheduled to arrive in Tokyo the same day we ...

We did 2 back to back cruises from Vancouver to Shanghai on the westerdam.
The staff as usual were friendly and very efficient from the room stewards to the waiting staff they were all very pleasant and full of smiles.
The food overall was a good standard in all dining locations though a little salty for our liking at times but great presentation and choices.
We had a signature suite ...

This was our fourth HAL cruise in the Asia-Pacific region and we enjoyed it. Westerdam has been refitted in recent years and the ship was in very good shape. Carpets and furniture were clean and well maintained. Public spaces were very pleasant. We had a verandah cabin which was nicely maintained with a modern flat screen TV on the wall across from the bed, and a good bathroom with tub/shower ...

This was our sixth cruise to Alaska, all on Holland America ships. People, I know ask “Why Alaska? Why Holland America? Why the same cruise?”
I’ll answer the last question first, “Because we can, because it is the most convenient cruise to take from our home, and because we can afford it”. The Alaska cruise is always a lovely cruise, the scenery cannot be beat, and yes you may encounter some ...
