Step aboard the Holland America Zaandam and prepare for fifteen nights of relaxing cruising through the sea from San Diego to Miami!
This cruise is notable because you'll only stop at exotic destinations such as Manzanillo, Huatulco, and Puerto Vallarta. This route is a special one for the Zaandam. As a matter of fact, this is the only time it's scheduled to sail it!
Our price includes all all meals, entertainment, port charges, and taxes. No sneaky extra fees! At less than $180 per day, this deal is.
Based in Alaska and refurbished only one year ago in 2025, more than 1,400 passengers can travel on this top-rated Rotterdam class cruise ship.
The Zaandam Holland America has two jacuzzis, a basketball court, a casino, a spa, and a gym.
This cruise spends eight days at sea and six days in port. Highlights include visits to very uncommon ports like Manzanillo, Huatulco, and Puerto Vallarta.
