Amazon Explorer

Passionate and intense, majestic and pure: South America is a continent of many moods. Explore the rainforests and jungles of the Amazon River searching for rare and endangered species. Relax on beautiful Caribbean beaches. Cruise Costa Rica's Golfo Dulce and South America's Amazon River.

All this while enjoying our 5-star service, plush accommodations and first class transportation. Throughout your cruise, we bring the history, culture and natural wonders of South America alive with our onboard Explorations Speaker Series and award winning shore excursions.

"At sea" days are glorious opportunities to be completely spoiled by our crew and, depending on your mood, to indulge in relaxing or invigorating onboard activities. One day you might opt for a hot stone massage in our luscious Greenhouse Spa and Salon, another day elect to attend a cooking demonstration in the world class Culinary Arts Center or spend time at one of the pools.

Prices are per-person based on double occupancy, unless otherwise noted.

ms Prinsendam

Officially christened in 2003 by Her Dutch Royal Highness, Princess Margriet of the Netherlands, the ms Oosterdam is the second in our series of Vista-class ships. As such she embraces the latest industry and environmental technologies such as her use of a diesel-electric power plant for optimal energy efficiency and an Azipod propulsion system that maximizes maneuverability.

Symbolic of Holland America Line's more than 130-year history of circumnavigating the globe, the centerpiece of the ms Oosterdam is a magnificent Waterford crystal globe, prominently displayed in a three-story atrium. First-time cruisers aboard this ship will quickly recognize the traditional touches that make Holland America cruisers regulars: a warm palette of colors accentuating an extensive use of crystal, marble, inlaid woods and brass, lovely flower arrangements, priceless artwork and antiques and a full wraparound teak promenade deck with padded deck chairs.

Holland America Line

All cruise lines in the world will tell you they're the best. That they offer the best food, the best entertainment, the best ships. But there is one cruise line that lives up to its boast: Holland America Line... recognized time and time again as the "best premium cruise line" and "best overall cruise value." What must a cruise line do to earn such acclaim? Big things you would expect of a great cruise line. And little things that make Holland America Line the Premium Cruise Line.

Escape depends on leaving a world of routine, regiment and restrictions behind and entering a carefree, graceful world where everything seems to exist for you alone. Such is the world of Holland America Line, recognized time and time again as the "best premium cruise line" - and for seven years running, the "best overall cruise value."

High praise, indeed. Yet, we earn every accolade with the kind of service you simply won't find on any other cruise line. When, for instance, was the last time a bartender poured your favorite beer into a tall glass, frosted as it should be? When a waiter dutifully noted that you prefer regular coffee with breakfast, decaf after dinner, and served both in a Rosenthal china cup? When someone brought fresh fruit to your room every day, and turned down your bed each night, placing a chocolate medallion on your pillow?

In addition to the big things you would expect of a great cruise line, these are some of the little things that make Holland America Line the Premium Cruise Line.
