Noordam Cruise Reviews - Reviews

This was probably the best vacation ever. The ship and crew were wonderful. The ship review should have gotten a 5.0, but they added in the port excursions as well.

I cannot thank Joy and Camille in Neptune lounge enough and Mada and Yohannes for our room service and Noel in Pinnacle

It was a good cruise. Ship needs some updating. The staff was very friendly.

Overall great. We’ve been on Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, and Carnival Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, and Carnival and Holland America was our favorite. Older more conservative crowd. We liked the Lincoln Cemter stage entertainment and of course Alaska speaks for itself.

We had excellent service on the ship. The staff was helpful and friendly.

THE SHIP WAS GREAT AND HAVE SAILED THIS SHIP BEFORE. HOWEVER WE WERE IN THE DARK BECAUSE OUR TRAVEL AGENT FROM NEVER GOT BACK TO US AND NEVER CORRESPONDENT WITH US FOR THIS CRUISE. ONCE HE GOT THE BOOKING HE GAVE US NO THANK YOU OF ANY KIND. DANIEL HAMMERS IS HIS NAME. OTHER TRAVELERS ON THR CRUISE HAD RECEIVED MANY EMENITIES AND DISCOUNTS ON THE SHIP. NEVER GO WITH .

We were told by HA that selected our cabin placement and it was the worst we've ever received right next to the engine. This was our third time using and our Fifth time using Holland America. Once we boarded the ship HA guest services did the best they could to give us a better room. We won't be using again.

After flying all night we arrived to check in at 10:30 am and board, hoping to get some sleep. Due to computer issues could not board until 3:30 pm. Especially frustrating with a 1 yr old in tow. MUST GET BACKUP SYSTEM!!!

Ship is starting to look tired. Time to update rooms. Love all the fresh flowers throughout the ship.

overall a very good cruise and a great value! Staff was very nice and accomodating. Captain was not very visible but I guess this ain't the Love Boat. Still...no presence at gala night that I know of. I felt rushed out of my room on debarkation day by steady intrusions at my room by staff. I get it that staff needs to turn the room but that's not really my problem. Don't rush the staff so much or hire more staff!

This was a very relaxing cruise because of the amount of days at sea. Perfect way to wind down after we spent a week in Hawaii in a rental house.

We were disappointed with this cruise after taking a HA cruise to South America. This ship was much larger but there were not much to do aboard except eat and shop.

Itinerary was GREAT but will never book traveling on the Noordam again and even considering not traveling Holland America Lines again!!! You can tell Carnival has taken over!!

Quite enjoyable overall as I was traveling with family members. Good food, very good services, but there were not many activities on board which I like. Felt bored when on sea for long time. The soft bed is the worst part of the whole trip.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary on board. The restaurant staff made a special cake for us, and sang an Indonesian song for us. We had dinner with the Captain and wife, which was one of the highlights of all our cruises. Thank you, Captain Draper! The cruise was excellent, just what we wanted. In retrospect, we liked the sea days just as much as shore days,We may be more. A few of the ports of call were far from the main attractions, which meant paying for excursions and spending lots of time on buses. I would have preferred fewer stops, more sea days, and possibly an overnight at one of the main cities, like Wellington, Melbourne or Hobart.

After this cruise, we are looking forward to the next cruise experience, perhaps Alaska or something in the European arena. Personnel on the trip were professional and every surface was cleaned and cleaned again.

Absolutely wonderful! Loved the ports, so much to see and do! Wish for more time in a couple ports. Would have enjoyed more ports in Australia. We had great weather which made a huge difference.

One of my more disappointing cruises with Holland America Cruiseline!!!!!!!!! Would hesitate recommending Holland America to my friends and family!!!

A nice, relaxing cruise. It was a definitely an older crowd. We're in our 30s and we felt like some of the youngest people on the ship. So don't plan on partying all night on the cruise.

Alaska is a fantastic itinerary -- not to be missed. Holland America has excellent excursions and shore relationships that, I think, make it the standout choice. You'll find the crowd on board about what you'd find at a theme park or Vegas -- anxious to relax, not interested in dressing up, and traveling with the entire family in tow.
