Zaandam Tour 1

The Holland America Line's ms Zaandam is a lovely and gracious cruise ship. This photo-tour of the ship gives views of the ship's exterior, and a few members of the crew.

The Zaandam in the harbor at Cabo San Lucas Zaandam is named for the Zaanstad district of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. At port in Victoria The Zaandam is her name ... Rotterdam is her home port. The Zaandam has a very nice figure! Here we see the Zaandam lifting a tender back into position after a day in-port. When tendering into port one boards and exits the tenders from this platform Here we see a tender offloading and loading passengers. Does anyone read Italian!? Aaah ... the Zaandam at Half Moon Cay! Views from the Promenade Deck Forward Looking forward on the Promenade Deck Forward The Promenade wraps around the ship. Looking aft down the full length of the ship. A tender is out. Our stateroom on this cruise was an inside cabin on the Lower Promenade Deck. Inside cabins have showers instead of tubs. And lots of counter space! The showers are NICE. Here's our table group on our last formal night. Our waiter and assistant waiters on this cruise were excellent. And they were great fun. Left to right: Gofar, Yogi, and Reza. Here are Reza, a table assistant, with our Wine Steward, Made. Another shot of our table group. Taken by Made, our Wine Steard.
