Never sailed with Holland America before - usually a Princess or Royal Caribbean cruiser but we were very pleased with the experience. Food, Beverages entertainment and staff were all very very good , we were always greeted by staff and the bar staff remembered our names and drinks which was nice - maybe we went to the bar too often :)
Excursions were very well organised as was embarkation and disembarkation we had great holiday.
