About This Cruise
The 21 Night Cultural Crossing With Icelandic Fjords & Greenland is a 21-night one-way itinerary aboard Holland America Zuiderdam. You board in Amsterdam and disembark in Boston, calling at 15 ports across 8 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Holland (Amsterdam), Shetland Isles (Lerwick), Iceland (Seydisfjordur, Akureyri, Husavik and 3 more), Greenland (Nanortalik, Qaqortoq), Newfoundland (St Anthony, St Johns), Nova Scotia (Halifax) and 2 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Amsterdam and home from Boston, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 7 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.
