Volendam
VOLENDAM
One of the most elegant ships in the Holland-America Line fleet, the MS Volendam is an inspired vessel. The cruise ship décor is entirely inspired by wildflowers, and, in sheer elegance and spaciousness, it offers passengers a fascinating trip through tapestries and floral fabrics, as well as the ornamentation of the enormous flower arrangements. The MS Volendam is a classic nautical vessel using the latest technology to offer you unprecedented attention from a carefully selected and professionally trained crew.
What’s there to do on board?
As refined as it is entertaining, the fun on board never ends. With a focus on outdoor sport, passengers go in for volleyball, tennis, and basketball, but the swimming pools and Jacuzzis are very well attended too.
The natural world is not left unattended, as passengers get activities direct from BBC Earth, where plant life and animal life from each of the destinations is thoroughly presented.
For cooking fans, your culinary skills get put to the test in hands-on workshops from America's Test Kitchen.
You can also treat yourself to a massage and enjoy other the relaxing treatments available from the Greenhouse Spa & Lounge. With two swimming pools and one hydrotherapy pool, the Spa also offers luxurious aromatherapy treatments.
You can even learn to edit a video and design your own travel diary with photos of the most memorable memories of your vacation, in a workshop taught by Microsoft Studio.
Of course, there’s also a wide variety of duty-free shopping at the boutique shops aboard all Holland-America Line cruises.
And being part of the World Stage with a 270-degree high-definition surround LED display lets you combine innovation with startling entertainment.
