Having sailed with Holland-America before, we knew the clientele would be older and so we were prepared for the walkers, wheelchairs, and even for the old folk who seem to find disagreement in any and everything. Consequently, it is the professionalism of the Holland-America staff that impresses us to no end. Furthermore, the ship is magnificent, the culinary offerings terrific, and the itinerary superb. Truthfully, if you have a lousy time on this ship it is most likely of your own making.

I would say that our stateroom attendants were particularly good and helpful with out specific needs. We spent most of the time in Entertainment venues at Lincoln Center Stage and almost none at the other entertainment venues. We did very few on board activities but did enjoy Americas Test Kitchen several times. We enjoyed meals in the dining room on Level 2 and are pleased with the service we were provided there which was excellent. As for the itinerary it would have been better if possible to spread the sea days more evenly as they were concentrated more toward the end of the cruise and there was only one port on the way back from Honningsvag.

Another wonderful Cruise with HAL! Several days of chilly, rainy weather could not ruin our enjoyment of Western Norway & her beautiful fjords & mins!

The ship is beautiful, clean, well appointed. The food service, quality and taste was superb in the dining room and specialty restaurants but close to poor on the Lido. We have been on other Holland cruises where the Lido food and selection/taste was far better. We ate breakfast in the Lido when we were in port and anxious to disembark to enjoy the stop but that was it. Badly organized too.

Great ship and friendly staff, but Dining Room Reservations system is a JOKE!!!
