Your Onboard Experience -
Holland America Line's ms Zuiderdam
Guests aboard this spacious ship encounter elegance at every turn, from a string quartet serenade to the Waterford Crystal Seahorse suspended in the three-storey atrium and the signature Holland America Line service. This ship is designed to carry fewer guests, offering more space in which to enjoy each voyage of discovery.
And like all of Holland America’s ships, the ms Zuiderdam is graced with small touches like an abundance of fresh flowers, and bold strokes like fine art, sculptures and antiques from around the world.
