Designed to be more spacious than most medium-sized cruise ships, Zaandam offers maximum comfort for fewer guests. Although aiming to attract a younger crowd than typical HAL cruise ships, Zaandam still boasts the familiar features older fans enjoy such as the art auctions, spa treatments, bingo, variety shows, chef’s demonstrations and shore excursions.

Kids can take to the seas in their own style thanks to the kids clubs that allow them to make new friends and get stuck into fun games and activities, giving both parents and kids a break.
You’ll be able to let the days float on by with the amazing outdoor pools that give you the perfect view of the ocean scenes from MS Zaandam. You can also lounge next to the pool with a cocktail when you aren't swimming.
You’ll have plenty of choice when it comes to dining onboard Zaandam. Enjoy mouthwatering Asian cuisine, homely teas and coffees, tasty tacos and hearty Italian dishes.
You’ll be able to see live music and other breathtaking performances onboard Zaandam. When the Wajang Theatre is not screening films, it doubles as the demonstration kitchen. Besides the free chef’s demonstrations, guests can even reserve a place in more intimate, hands-on classes.
In the Atrium a string quartet plays light classical tunes, setting your pre-dinner mood onboard MS Zaandam. After dinner, take in a show such as the dance trio in the colourful Ocean Bar. Finally, wind down in one of the bars or lounges enjoying the various acts.
Great cruise. Very impressed with the planning by Planet Cruise and the transfer arrangements and hotels both in Bueno Aires and Santiago. Very smooth an efficient. Excllent service all round Robert
This was a very good educational cruise, it is once in a lifetime cruise and the Panama canal was the best part of the cruise
Itinerary, food and staff were excellent. Cabins are in need of an update as they are starting to look shabby (stains on carpet and dints in the walls) although there were kept clean.
The ship and itinerary were good. The food and service were very good. The evening entertainment was poor the shows were only average and there was very little to do when the 1st show was over. The drinks prices were very high after they were subject to service charge. Very few people were drinking or socialising. The only serious problem we had was that Holiday Taxis were 95 minutes late picking up from the ship to the hotel. It is my opinion they took too much work on and that people were leaving the ship and taking the taxis of those already booked. The other arrangements went perfectly and the tours before and after the cruise were excellent.
