Holland America Cruises

Holland America Line sends four ships to the Mediterranean for a summer of cruises. They specialize in longer cruises of 10- to 28-day duration. There are new ports and more time in ports including late departures and overnights. The Holland America Mediterranean cruises are certainly enticing.

Holland America Mediterranean cruises feature the luxury of one- to two-night stays in Athens, Istanbul, Marseille and Venice; and extended evening stays for enjoying night-life in lively ports such as Barcelona, Monte Carlo and Santorini. Holland America offers old-world elegance at a fair price.
