Rotterdam

7 Night Norse Legends (Amsterdam Roundtrip)

Sail date: July 17, 2022

Ship: Rotterdam

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Review summary

We sailed to Norway with four ports of call of which we made it to all four. Norway is a delightful country easy to walk around and pleasant people. On the way back we disembarked in the city of Rotterdam as opposed to Amsterdam due to water levels in the canal. The Captain let us know in a timely fashion and Holland America provided transportation for those who need to get back to the Amsterdam area.

We stayed clear of crowded areas and liked the relaxed atmosphere on board.

Club Orange

5 out of 5

This is an add-on feature to be able to use club orange it is typically $35 per day to eat in this dining room and to have some club orange perks. We were allowed to use club orange as Neptune suite guests and everyone was delightful the food was fantastic

Cabin / Stateroom

We were upgraded to a Neptune Suite a few days before sailing. No words can describe the level of comfort and luxury. Complete with the Neptune Lounge.

The fjords in Norway is one of best places to go with a cruiseschip
