Defining the future of cruising, the ms Zuiderdam (pronounced ZI-der-dam) began her inaugural season in 2002 as the first of Holland America's Vista Class cruise ships. Forward-looking in both design and spirit ms Zuiderdam trumpeted the arrival of a new age in cruising. ms Zuiderdam dazzles guests with more of everything they desire on a cruise ship: more staterooms with verandahs for private dining, sunning and relaxing; more dining choices from fancy dress-up dinners to casual pool-side dining; more ways to be pampered in The Greenhouse Spa and Salon. This spectacular cruise ship delights guests with an unforgettable onboard experience.
How better to enhance your onboard experience than to provide incomparable cuisine in a variety of wonderful ways. Bountiful buffets and dress-up dinners, hors d'oeuvres on your verandah or a picnic on the beach are just a few of the dining options awaiting you aboard a Holland America Line cruise vacation.
