Holland America Line Zaandam

The Zaandam is one of Holland America Line's "R" class ships, a smaller vessel offering 10 decks and space for 1,432 guests, so it feels far more intimate than some of the larger ships at sea. Music runs through the ship's décor, with guitars signed by Eric Clapton, Iggy Pop and the Rolling Stones adding character to the surroundings.

The Zaandam sails from Vancouver to Alaska every Wednesday between May and September.
