Overview
Holland America’s Nieuw Amsterdam is the fourth in a long line of illustrious ships of the same name. The first ms Nieuw Amsterdam served during WWI, the second is the model for Holland America’s logo and was a favorite amongst Hollywood heavy hitters like Rita Hayworth and Spencer Tracey.
Taking a bit from each of her predecessors, this ship features the latest additions to Holland America’s fleet with Tamarind, a pan-Asian restaurant, the Explorer’s Lounge Bar, which offers wine tastings, and a new luxury jewelry boutique.
This Nieuw Amsterdam also gives a nod to New York, the city she’s named after, with exquisite art displayed throughout the ship.

The team at Holland America onshore and aboard ship make you feel so very welcomed. Every person we encountered from the transportation from the airport to our first hotel to the Denali lodge and ship made this trip the experience of a lifetime. We were traveling with our extended family of 19 adults and we could not have had a more wonderful trip! Even though there was a little snafu with our dining room tables on the first day the staff worked it out and were so helpful and apologetic. I can’t say enough complimentary things about the staff except to say thank you! This was our 4th cruise but first with Holland America and it was absolutely perfect!
Pros: Holland America takes care of it all! From the transportation from airport to accommodations and shore excursions they handle it all!!
Cons: None!
