Settle in for seven nights of relaxing sailing across the sea when you set sail with the Holland America Zaandam from Vancouver and back again.
This sailing is notable because you'll exclusively call on extremely rare stops such as Skagway and Ketchikan. This is a typical route for the Zaandam.
We include all entertainment, meals, port fees, and taxes in this, so that you can compare cruises easily. At less than $150 per day, this is a strong value.
Based in Alaska and refurbished less than one year ago in 2025, over 1,400 travelers can sail comfortably on this top-rated Rotterdam class ship.
The Zaandam Holland America wows guests with a gym, a basketball court, a casino, a spa, and two jacuzzis.
This cruise consists of four sea days and two port days. Highlights include visits to extremely rare ports like Skagway and Ketchikan.
