Holland America Line has unveiled details of its 2028 season in Europe, offering more sailings across Northern Europe, the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands and beyond, with the new season combining iconic destinations with opportunities to connect more deeply with the cultures, landscapes and traditions that define them.
The 2028 season features the cruise line’s highest number of Europe port calls in nearly a decade, including record numbers of visits to Norway, Spain, Ireland and the Netherlands. Guests can discover more than 200 UNESCO World Heritage sites — including in-depth exploration of Norway’s UNESCO-listed fjords — and experience each destination through regional cuisine, local traditions and immersive shore excursions.
Paul Grigsby, vice president of deployment and revenue planning for Holland America Line, said that: “Europe is a destination that changes with every season, and each one offers guests a completely different way to experience it,” “We built each season around moments travelers can only experience at certain times of year, from the Netherlands in full bloom during spring to winter escapes in the Mediterranean and Canary Islands and long summer days along Europe’s coastlines.”
Holland America recently expanded its European deployment year-round, with departures from January through early December 2028 and itineraries ranging from seven-day getaways to 48-day Legendary Voyages.
Five ships — Rotterdam, Nieuw Statendam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Volendam and Zuiderdam — will sail throughout the region, giving guests a wide range of options across Northern Europe, the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands and transatlantic crossings.
Overnight stays, extended calls and late-night departures in select ports provide additional time to explore destinations from Northern Europe’s historic capitals and fjord communities to the sun-soaked coasts of the Mediterranean.
