be mentally prepared to hang out with senior citizens and embrace their wisdom and life experience. It's was different from past cruises.

Utilize the dining room for breakfast & lunch when possible.

Near but not too near the elevators is a must.

This really applies to all ships. If you are flying home from Europe plan to fly the day after docking. Removes a lot of stress & provides some time in the disembarkation port. Also there is no need to rush off of the ship & there is time to have breakfast in the dining room.

If you take the better insurance offered for your cruise & you are unable to go on a Holland America tour because of health issues no matter how minor you will receive a refund.

The bar behind the Casino was a great find.

if you have allergies AVOID this ship

Near but not too near the elevators is a must. There is small hall on either side of front bank of elevators so walk by fewer rooms to get to the elevator. Less walking is so important on a cruise.
Troy
Not too many onboard activities

Expect an older crowd, great service and a laid back atmosphere.

Do not get the Romantic Voyage Package (see summary)
Brucebear
Excellent service and accomodations at a price for an older crowd

On days you don't want a late dinner, schedule an earlier time as soon as possible.

Holland is geared to an older crowd. Did not matter to me since with my ex-wife. Not for singles, unless older age group.

I am a smoker and this ship's smoking area was to small for the number of smokers onboard. I was on the Niew Amsterdam Alaska cruise 2 years ago and that ship had more and larger smoking areas. That ship had better overall layout and appeared newer than the Ziuderdam. Advice would be: if you are a smoker do not pick the Zuiderdam for a cruise.

Do it!

Expect bare-bones cruise with cutbacks in all departments.
