SEATTLE — Holland America Line has opened bookings for four of its ‘Legendary Voyages’ in 2025 and early 2026.
Ranging from 28-56 days, these longer cruises touch three distinct regions and all sail roundtrip or from/to a North American homeport.
A new ‘Glaciers & Volcanoes: Alaska to Hawaii’ Legendary Voyage heads to the 49th and 50th states, a rare combination in one cruise. ‘Tales of the South Pacific’ and ‘Hawaii, Tahiti & Marquesas’ explore the islands of the South Pacific, while the popular ‘Amazon Explorer’ returns to sail down the second longest river in the world, behind only to the Nile.
The four Legendary Voyages are offered on different Holland America Line ships: Nieuw Amsterdam, Volandam, Westerdam and Zaandam. Guests can embark in a variety of North American homeports, including New York, Seattle and San Diego.
“Our Legendary Voyages have proven to be popular with our guests since launching this year, and we’ve worked to craft more of these longer itineraries as we plan 2026 and beyond to meet the demand,” said Gus Antorcha, president, Holland America Line. “We’re excited about the new ‘Glaciers and Volcanos: Alaska to Hawaii’ cruise that visits Alaska and Hawaii, two regions that are sought after but rarely offered together. And the chance to board a ship in New York City and explore the Amazon is a rare and legendary opportunity.”
