Holland America Line Reveals 2025 Canada And New England Voyages

Holland America Line’s 2025 Canada and New England Season showcases longer voyages, maiden ports, and a 25-day “Legendary Voyage” to Greenland and Iceland! 

“With Zuiderdam beginning in May, we will slightly increase our capacity in the region from previous years and add more verandah staterooms available for booking,” said Beth Bodensteiner, Holland America Line’s chief commercial officer. “Plus, our itineraries present several choices for a truly unique vacation that explores a culturally-rich region from an easy gateway for an extended season, including the popular fall foliage and longer voyages up to Greenland and Iceland.”

Zuiderdam and Volendam offer a variety of cruises to explore Canada, New England, Greenland, and Iceland. From May to October, Zuiderdam’s seven-day departure showcases the Atlantic Coast’s delicious seafood, maritime history, charming seaside towns, and natural beauty. Volendam’s itineraries last ten to eleven days and highlight the historical English and French influences at various ports. Guests can enjoy regional attractions and breathtaking fall foliages offered in Volendam’s September schedule, which includes three seven-day cruises. Additionally, repositioning cruises to and from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, will have a first-time stop at Yorktown (Williamsburg), Virginia.
