Holland America Line is preparing to celebrate its 80th anniversary in 2027 with more than 100 cruises now available for booking. The cruise line has also announced newly enhanced Cruisetour experiences, which offer deeper immersion into Alaska’s wilderness and culture.
From April through September 2027, Holland America Line will deploy six ships to Alaska, offering a range of itineraries that bring travelers up close to glaciers and wildlife. Guests can choose to sail roundtrip from Seattle, Washington; roundtrip from Vancouver, British Columbia; or between Vancouver and Whittier, Alaska, with voyages ranging from seven to 28 days — including a monthlong Legendary Alaska Arctic Circle Solstice itinerary and a new eight-day option roundtrip from Vancouver. The cruise line will also offer more than 175 shore excursions during the season, including a new Reindeer Encounter at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.
“As we approach our 80th year exploring the Great Land, we’re proud to offer cruises and Cruisetours that deepen our legacy of expertise and enrich every guest’s experience,” said Dan Rough, VP of Revenue Management for Holland America Line, in a press release statement. “From tasting locally sourced seafood and engaging with park rangers at Glacier Bay, to watching bears roam under the guidance of wildlife experts—our Alaska cruises and Cruisetours are crafted to be unforgettable.”
Holland America Line will also celebrate the lead-up to its milestone 80th anniversary with the enhanced Ultimate Alaska & Denali Cruisetour itineraries in 2026. The Cruisetours combine multi-day inland adventures with a 7-Day Glacier Discovery cruise. Guests will also enjoy a new complimentary visit to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center to encounter moose, bison, bears and more while learning about the care and preservation of these species.
Holland America Line’s 2027 Alaska cruises and 2026 Cruisetours are open for booking now. For those looking to pair their 2027 cruise with an inland exploration, 2027 Cruisetours will be available for booking later this fall.
