OK cruise. NOT great by rheajohn

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Nieuw Amsterdam

We enjoyed the cruise, but would take another cruise line next time. We felt that $35.00 for one SMALL bag of laundry was overpriced.

Alaska Wonderful! by tediz

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Nieuw Amsterdam

We’d go back in a heartbeat. If I had any criticism, it’s that the ship needs to do better on info about where to find the gangways and the whole process of leaving the ship at various ports.

Ask to be seated at a larger table for dinner. You will meet the most fascinating people. We had as you wish dining and it was painless.

The Nieuw Amsterdam will put you in the lap of luxury. If you enjoy "dressing up" in your finest, dining on fine cuisine, and enjoying showroom entertainment without lineups, you'll love the elegance of HAL.
