5 Star experience across the board!! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to visit the Northeast and Canada. Most of the cruisers with us were older and almost no kids. Food was fantastic, everything and everyone was just awesome!! Thank you Zaandam crew!

Ship tip
Pick a location room location that works best for your needs. If most of your time is going to be spent in the front of the boat get a room in the front. We picked a spot about halfway (front to back and top to bottom) right by the elevator - worked out awesome!
Get there a day in advance!! Ship boards early and once on board you can't get back off - in Boston anyway. Maybe even spend two days before departure. Freedom trail, North end and Boston Common are a must!
Cool place!! Kinda small and not much to see but get out and walk around. One of the oldest ports on the East Coast, we did the historic ghost tour, it was neat!!
Not a port call but a sea day (two since we didn't stop in Charlottetown). Get out of your room and learn the boat, go to the gym, the spa, the pool. See days are fun with lots to do!
My Favorite!! Tons of cool history, architecture, culture, art, shops and food!! Spend a good amount of time here and do the bus tour, plus walking tour.
Awesome!! After we got off the boat we went to the hotel and stayed an extra day, definitely do the bus tour and walk around downtown. Hotels are not far from old Montreal!
Awesome! Shocked it went so smooth with over 1000 people trying to get off and get thier luggage. Perfect, I think it took 5 minutes from exit to taxi ride!! Super efficient at all port calls!! Awesome!
