Experience Alaska with Holland

Holland America Line is welcoming bookings for its 2026 Alaska cruise season. Itineraries range from seven to 28 days on six of Holland’s ships: Eurodam, Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam, Westerdam and Zaandam.

New in 2026 is the 14-day Great Alaska Explorer cruise, while the popular 28-day Alaska Arctic Circle Solstice cruise returns for a third year. If your clients are looking to combine Alaska with more of the wildlife and the rugged nature of British Columbia, look into the Great Bear Rainforest cruise aboard Noordam.

Holland Glacier Bay
Holland’s 2026 Alaska cruises are accepting bookings.

Departing April 19, 2026, the roundtrip cruise departs from Seattle and includes an overnight stay at Prince Rupert and a scenic cruising route in the Grenville Channel, Bella Bella and Johnstone Strait and a transit journey of the Seymour Narrows.

In addition to scenic viewing from the ship, guests can get up close to the ice on shore excursions like the 26 Glaciers Cruise from Whittier, the Glacier Discovery Helicopter Tour in Skagway and the Mendenhall Glacier Float Trip in Juneau. Sightseeing and land excursions on Holland’s Alaska ships carry a wildlife expert on board who can point out the native animals found along the cruise route.

In addition, the cruise line’s We Love Alaska program immerses guests in the local culture with onboard programming, cruise activities and dining events that showcase the culinary traditions of the region. Onboard experts also lead workshops and lectures that illuminate each destination.
