About Us
Company Overview
Holland America Line started out in 1873 as a passenger line taking immigrants to the New World … and now the cruise line takes people on vacations to all corners of the globe with expertly crafted itineraries, extraordinary service and authentic experiences in each destination. Offering an ideal perfectly-sized ship experience, its fleet visits nearly 400 ports in 114 countries and has shared the thrill of Alaska for more than 75 years — longer than any other cruise line.
Every day on a Holland America Line cruise brings a wealth of activities and enrichment. There is always a full schedule — from attending an engaging presentation or learning about reds at a wine tasting to channeling Picasso at a painting class or playing pickleball.
At Holland America Line, our legacy of onboard care extends to caring for the planet, and we are fully committed to these sustainability goals and aspirations.
Holland America Line is incredibly honored to have been awarded a multitude of prestigious accolades from our travel partners, publications and guests. We continue to strive for excellence across our fleet, destinations and in every experience we offer guests who sail with us.
