Why sail this route

You unpack once and let the ship do the travelling: 3 countries over 13 nights, starting in Vancouver and finishing in Tokyo, with a new port waiting most mornings instead of airports and hotel check-ins.

The pacing runs to 5 port days and 10 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 Westerdam. You board in Vancouver and disembark in Tokyo, calling at 5 ports across 3 countries along the way.

In sequence the voyage takes in Canada (Vancouver), Alaska (Ketchikan) and Japan (Kushiro, Aomori, Tokyo).

As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Vancouver and home from Tokyo, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 10 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.
