    We sailed to Alaska on Koningsdam in June, our 4th cruise with HAL and we took our kids and grands, too. Suite 5001, just before the bow, with it's wraparound veranda, was amazing for Glacier and wildlife viewing. We're working our way up in mariner status. We loved Koningsdam and the N. Statendam, too.

    I went on Holland Amsterdam back in 2021 and did a Princess cruise in 2022 and I must say I enjoyed Holland much better. Nothing was wrong with Princess but, their just was a difference in qualify of food, service, etc... We are planning a Mexican Cruise this year for November and planning to go on the same ship your touring right now. This would be the second Holland Cruise and the second ship trying out. Cannot wait!

    Great tour! I’m booked on a Holland America Caribbean cruise in January for my first ever cruise. I’ve been very curious to see what the ship and its layout might be like. I’m handicapped and walk with a cane, so getting around the ship has been a little bit of a concern for me. It doesn’t look too daunting though! I will enjoy every minute!😊

    I just watched another review of this ship where the guy was very droll and boring and gave a horrid review of this ship. He made no reference to the navigator app which is a really cool new tool. I’ve sailed the Panama Canal on the Neiuw Amsterdam and to Alaska on the Zuiderdam this ship has a lot of the same features but the set up looks great. I’ve not seen the billboard or rolling stone lounges before and the bb king lounge looks great on this ship! Especially that you can see down into it from above.
    Right off the bat I could tell you were more engaging in your review. I’m booked to sale April 5 on her and I can’t wait. I’ve never had a bad sail and food and entertainment has always been bang on. Thank you for this, now I’m even more excited for my cruise!

      @SharonatSeaTravel  5 місяців тому +1

      Online it states smoking allowed in casino for active players, but I don't recall anyone smoking, then again, the casino was usually more empty than full. It doesn't seem to be a hotspot on HAL like it is on other cruise lines.

      If it's just the family (4 of us usually) we have our own table. When we cruise with a group, we might be at a table for 8 or 10, but with people from our group. Haven't really eaten with "strangers" in a few years.

    Loved the ship tour video except for one thing: the volume of the music. It was too loud and thus was competing with your voice. It was such a relief when you turned it off while you had your cup of coffee. Ahhhh. But, then it started up again-bummer. Please, I just want to listen to you, not some competing music.
