Alaskan Explorer Cruises

Sail roundtrip from Seattle, experience the grandeur of Glacier Bay National Park or Hubbard Glacier, and explore iconic Alaskan frontier towns and beautiful Victoria, British Columbia.

From Seattle's beautiful Puget Sound to Vancouver Island and the Gulf of Alaska, scenic beauty surrounds you for the whole of this Alaska cruise itinerary. Choose the Glacier Bay route and watch in wonder as whales, puffins and the park's tidewater glaciers come into view. Or discover Wrangell-St. Elias, North America's largest national park, and experience the colossal Hubbard Glacier and St. Elias Mountain Range. Take a dogsled adventure in Juneau, learn about Tlingit culture in Sitka, flightsee over Misty Fjords National Monument in Ketchikan and visit Butchart Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia. Set your adventurous spirit free on an Alaskan Explorer cruise vacation.

ms Oosterdam

Officially christened in 2003 by Her Dutch Royal Highness, Princess Margriet of the Netherlands, the ms Oosterdam is the second in our series of Vista-class ships. As such she embraces the latest industry and environmental technologies such as her use of a diesel-electric power plant for optimal energy efficiency and an Azipod propulsion system that maximizes maneuverability.

Symbolic of Holland America Line's more than 130-year history of circumnavigating the globe, the centerpiece of the ms Oosterdam is a magnificent Waterford crystal globe, prominently displayed in a three-story atrium. First-time cruisers aboard this ship will quickly recognize the traditional touches that make Holland America cruisers regulars: a warm palette of colors accentuating an extensive use of crystal, marble, inlaid woods and brass, lovely flower arrangements, priceless artwork and antiques and a full wraparound teak promenade deck with padded deck chairs.

Holland America Line

All cruise lines in the world will tell you they're the best. That they offer the best food, the best entertainment, the best ships. But there is one cruise line that lives up to its boast: Holland America Line... recognized time and time again as the "best premium cruise line" and "best overall cruise value." What must a cruise line do to earn such acclaim? Big things you would expect of a great cruise line. And little things that make Holland America Line the Premium Cruise Line.

Escape depends on leaving a world of routine, regiment and restrictions behind and entering a carefree, graceful world where everything seems to exist for you alone. Such is the world of Holland America Line, recognized time and time again as the "best premium cruise line" - and for seven years running, the "best overall cruise value."

High praise, indeed. Yet, we earn every accolade with the kind of service you simply won't find on any other cruise line. When, for instance, was the last time a bartender poured your favorite beer into a tall glass, frosted as it should be? When a waiter dutifully noted that you prefer regular coffee with breakfast, decaf after dinner, and served both in a Rosenthal china cup? When someone brought fresh fruit to your room every day, and turned down your bed each night, placing a chocolate medallion on your pillow?

In addition to the big things you would expect of a great cruise line, these are some of the little things that make Holland America Line the Premium Cruise Line.
