'We are the cruise line for you'
'If you want to experience new cultures with family, bring history to life for your children or just have a fun-in-the-sun vacation, then we’re the cruise line for you,' Holland America President Orlando Ashford said.
Younger travelers can join kids their own age on a treasure hunt with Club HAL while adults get a crash course on European architecture at an EXC Talks presentation. Later, the entire family can come together to share the day’s highlights over freshly made pasta at Canaletto. In port, the line has crafted family-friendly Shore EXCursions like whale-watching or a trip to Legoland. Many offer reduced pricing for kids.
During Alaska cruises, Holland America offers a Junior Ranger Program in Glacier Bay. Kids can interact with national park rangers and earn their Junior Ranger Badge.
Flexible stateroom and suite options
Family-friendly accommodations include sofa beds, Murphy beds and connecting rooms. Nieuw Statendam and Koningsdam also have dedicated ocean-view family staterooms with beds for five guests, extra closet space and two bathrooms, one with a bathtub, shower, sink and toilet and one with a shower and sink.
Book through July 15
Through July 15, the 'Who’s in Your Crew?' promotion shaves up to 50% off fares for select summer 2019 Alaska and Europe cruises. And third and fourth children or adults in the same stateroom sail free. (Whether fares are reduced or free for these additional guests, taxes, fees and port expenses still apply.) More than 200 cruises to Alaska, the Mediterranean and Baltic seas, British Isles and Norway are eligible.
A family of four can sail on a seven-day Alaska cruise for $1,758 in an inside stateroom with the promotion.
