  • The highlights of Australia & New Zealand
  • Alaska’s beautiful scenery and wildlife.

Alaska

A cruise along Alaska’s marine highway, the Inside Passage, offers you a glimpse into the spectacular beauty of America’s most northern state. From Vancouver, cruise past evergreen forests and Indian fishing villages to Juneau, Alaska’s Capital, where you’ll see your first glacier, the mighty Mendenhall. Then travel on to the old gold rush frontier town of Skagway, with it’s well preserved boardwalks and “wild west” saloons. The highlight of every Alaska cruise is a day spent at Glacier Bay National Park where you have a front row view of the fabulous spires, pinnacles and pillars of ice, and be told about the phenomena of glaciers by the onboard park naturalist. Finally Ketchikan, a quaint weathered town clinging to the mountainside offers a park full of mystical totem poles and excursions to the stunning “Misty Fjords”.

Gems Of The Baltic

Bid farewell to Copenhagen and the famous “Little Mermaid” as you sail north to the splendid cities and spectacular scenery of the Baltic. First stop is the medieval-walled Tallinn in old-world Estonia, with cobblestone streets, then revel in two whole days in St Petersburg, time to take Catherine the Great’s palaces and the treasures of the Hermitage Museum – even to travel to Moscow! Sparkling Scandinavian capitals follow – Helsinki and Stockholm, then your chance to visit Warnemunde in Germany, gateway to the sights of Berlin. Finally Arhus in Denmark’s pastoral Jutland Peninsula.

Enjoy spacious staterooms or perhaps choose a stateroom with private balcony to experience the best of the beautiful views? Whichever you choose, Holland America Line’s comfortable flagship Amsterdam offers the ultimate way to experience Northern Europe!
