Why sail this route

You unpack once and let the ship do the travelling: 4 countries over 13 nights, starting in Seattle and finishing in Tokyo, with a new port waiting most mornings instead of airports and hotel check-ins.

The pacing runs to 15 port days and 13 days at sea — time to enjoy the ship between stops.

About This Cruise

The 13 Night North Pacific Crossing is a 13-night one-way itinerary aboard Holland America Noordam. You board in Seattle and disembark in Tokyo, calling at 15 ports across 4 countries along the way.

In sequence the voyage takes in Washington (Seattle), Alaska (Ketchikan), Japan (Kushiro, Aomori, Tokyo and 3 more), South Korea (Busan) and Japan (Sakaiminato, Maizuru, Kanazawa and 4 more).

As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Seattle and home from Tokyo, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 13 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
