Launched in 2006, the Noordam was named for the Northern compass point and offers classic ocean travel with plenty of added new features. This Holland America Vista-class ship features museum-quality art - from 19th oils to contemporary photographs of music greats Dizzy Gillespie and B.B. King. The ship has incredible enrichment and entertainment facilities, including cooking shows and hands-on workshops in partnership with America's Test Kitchen. During the day you can enjoy its BBC Earth Experience or take a fitness class and at night you can enjoy all the delights of the Music Walk and savour the delicious offerings at its wide variety of fine restaurants.
