With its immaculate ships, rich furnishing, great dining and exceptional service, Holland America’s 1950’s advertising slogan of ‘It’s good to be on a well-run ship’ still rings true. Perhaps truer than ever with a host of dining options, remarkable entertainment, lavishly furnished staterooms with the best room service menu afloat and consistently good value for the dollar.
Therefore, it is with special pleasure that we offer a one-time Springtime transit of the Panama Canal, East to West, from Fort Lauderdale to Seattle aboard the new ms Westerdam with some great ports of call en route including lovely Costa Rica, a rare visit to Nicaragua, wonderful San Diego and even a stop in always popular Vancouver B.C. before our arrival in Seattle. Nicer still, during our visit to Puerto Vallarta, we have included a special tour with lunch in this picturesque town, the setting for ‘The Night of the Iguana’, something only our guests will enjoy.
Ease of travel and comfort distinguish this holiday. We have included a deluxe hotel stay in Fort Lauderdale the evening before sailing so that our guests need not worry about tight same-day air connections, a much more relaxing way to begin a holiday. We have a superb Tour Manager onboard, Barbara Abegglen, with special cocktail parties and events just for our guests. All at prices that are quite wonderful.
We invite you to join us. But, please do not delay, at these fares, this voyage will sell quickly.
