  • A ship tour of the ms Westerdam. Westerdam is one of four Vista-class ships with the cruise line. Sister ships in this class are MS Zuiderdam, MS Oosterdam, and MS Noordam.
    A couple highlights of this vessel is that retractable roof on the midship pool. This makes it a perfect ship for sailing the Alaska region, or the Caribbean when an afternoon shower rolls through.
    There is a fair share of complimentary food venues on the ship, mostly on the Lido deck with the Dive In burgers, Taco Bar, Lido Marketplace, and New York style Pizza.
    This ship sails mostly the Caribbean and the Alaska region.

    Have you ever sailed on Westerdam or one of her sister ships?

      Just got back from a magnificent 11 day Panama Canal cruise on the Zuiderdam. Looks like the Vista class ships are all carbon copies of each other - thought I was back on board our ship watching your video.

      Going on the Oosterdam to Alaska in September is the Westerdam very similar since they are sister ships?

      Sailed her for 14 nights in Asia in March this year and doing the same cruise (with a few slight changes) again for 14 nights in Feb/Mar 2020. Love the ship and the crew but wasn't super impressed with the food in the MDR.

    Been on the Westerdam 3 times from in the last 25 years. Looking forward to another trip on it in 2025. Although I prefer some of the older decor, the ship remains our favorite because it is smaller than the others and perfect for people who must limit walking for medical reasons. Service on all the ships has been excellent, even though the first day of each cruise is doubly hectic for the crew.

    May late father used to work here at MS westerdam for years. He worked as a stage manager during his time. Bec of his work, he had provided us better life.. and now that he passed away last April 2022, I just missed the days when he tells me story about how his workplace looks like.
    Thank you for this video. 🥰😥

    Thank you for the tour. The last few cruises we have taken were on newer ships. No issues. However, on some of the older ships we had sewer smells and propulsion issues. We are now booked on the Westerdam for 51 nights Oct 2022. Sure hope this won’t be an issue

  • @kerristraub2638

    Thanks for the overview! We sailed the Oosterdam in Alaska back in 2015, and are set to sail on the Westerdam this September... can't wait to visit all the Alaskan ports again and finally make it to Denali! This was a good refresher for how the ship is laid out and all the amenities and spaces that are offered with Holland.

    Loved this video! We'll be on the Westerdam in September going to Alaska. So funny to see "Smiley" in the Lido Market! He was on the Zuiderdam November 2019 cruise to the Caribbean. LOVED him! Anyway, getting back to this ship, it looks exactly like the Zuiderdam, and it was very great to see this ship and what all is there, and what I missed!

    • @CruiseRadio

    Thank you for your reviews. I love listening during my work commute. It is very well put together. Have you reviewed Pacific Princess? I am booked to cruise in Nov 2020 and would like to know how it feels in a cruise this small. It will be my second princess cruise and I am afraid it could be too boring. We will be celebrating our 15 yr anniversary.

      Us too Alex! This is my first cruise with Holland. We have a Neptune ste 7060 so going comfortably. Only my second cruise. I did 30 days in the mediterranean in 2013 on Carnival and loved it. For my second I was told by world cruiser friends we have to do Alaska. Close to Hawaii where we live so we said what the heck. Maybe we will run into you on the trip. Aloha Sheree and Rod

    We had issues on another HAL boat with the Lincoln Center Stage being up against the walkway with no wall. People would see the signs but still talking, kids screaming, etc. as they pass. It affected listening to some performances. The space just wasn't well thought out, IMO. Anyone have these issues on the Westerdam?

    • @CruiseRadio
      @CruiseRadio  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes. Same here. Hopefully they are fixing this. It has been a known issue for a while. The complete opposite of what a Lincoln performance should be. Thanks for watching.

    I will be sailing Westerdam to Alaska this May 2020 as a single traveler. Not sure if I wanna go for the main dining area since I feel silly doing that by myself when I know everyone else will be couples, groups, or families. What do you think? Are there also single travelers who go to the main dining area or just head to the Dive In buffet restaurant? Do you require to be dressed for that place?
