Nieuw Amsterdam
MS Nieuw Amsterdam’s inaugural cruise took place in July and I joined journalists and travel industry representatives from around the world for a four-day round trip from Venice to Dubrovnik. The cruise was packed with ceremonies and behind-the-scenes tours of Holland America Line’s newest ship, the line’s 15th and an almost identical sister to the Signature Class Eurodam, which launched in 2008.
The Kimberley – behind the scenes
Most Kimberley cruises offer you the chance to take an optional helicopter flight over Mitchell Plateau to the tiered pools and cascades of Mitchell Falls, an iconic part of the Kimberley. After travelling to the top of Australia, however, many passengers wish to explore further.
How to choose the right cabin for you
When picking a cabin, it is crucial to pick one that fits the type of experience you envision yourself having. Having the wrong cabin on a cruise can greatly impact the attitude you carry around for the rest of your vacation. It is important that you pick both a location within the ship and a style that will suit all of your needs.
