7 Night Historic Coasts cruise sailing from Boston roundtrip aboard ms Maasdem.
Grandly proportioned and designed to carry fewer passengers than other ships in her class, the ms Maasdam is among the most spacious ships at sea. Among her many delights: a soaring atrium lobby around which are clustered all the essential services: the front office, shore excursion office, photo gallery, boutiques, internet center, the lively Ocean Bar, dining in the two-tiered Rotterdam Dining Room with grand sweeping staircase, suites with their own private verandahs, offering an airy, outdoor room for relaxing, dining, and private viewing. All so you have an extra measure of space.
Experience the captivating beauty and fascinating history of the Canada and New England coastlines. You'll experience an ever changing panorama of dramatic coastlines...pristine islands...a kaleidoscope of Fall colors...
Shore Excursions:
Holland America's extensive program of shore excursions has been specially prepared to enhance your enjoyment of your cruise by offering you opportunities to see the highlights of each port.
A Selection of Your Ports of Call:
Boston, Massachusetts
The cradle of American history, Boston rests on its glorious cultural laurels-Trinity Church, Old Ironsides, the Freedom Trail; yet thrusts into the next millennium as a high-tech hub of the computer industry.
Portland, Maine
Explore a waterfront without peer, teeming with restaurants specializing in succulent Maine lobster, sophisticated shops and boutiques. Visit the boyhood home of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow; tour to Kennebunkport, the vacation home of former President George Bush.
St John, New Brunswick
Saint John, New Brunswick, is located on the Bay of Fundy—home to the world's largest tidal swing. Twice daily, two billion tons of water (more water than in all the rivers on the planet) surge into the Bay. Indulge in fascinating, gravity-defying, logic-testing observation as you watch the Saint John river flow backwards and the falls reverse direction. Take time to kayak, bike, stroll and explore this busy seaport, where Native, French, Irish and Scottish heritages meld seamlessly.
Halifax, Nova Scotia
Ocean scenery at its best: granite boulders pounded by crashing surf, lighthouses standing sentinel on rocky ledges, a delectable lobster lunch caught fresh from the waters off Peggy's Cove. Back in Halifax, the ramparts of the Citadel await your inspection.
Bar Harbor, Maine
Once the summer-society rival of Newport, today Bar Harbor is rich in the legacy of the 19th century millionaires, including Acadia National Park, most of which was donated by the Rockefeller family. Clip clop along tranquil trails in a horse-drawn carriage.
