starsLaunched in 2006, the ms Noordam is the newest member of Holland America's renowned Vista-class ships. Named for the Northern compass point, she embraces the latest industry and environmental technologies such as her use of a diesel-electric power plant for optimal energy efficiency and an Azipod propulsion system that maximizes manoeuvrability.
On board ms Noordam you will discover museum-quality paintings such as an oil painting of the city of Utrecht painted in 1842, as well as contemporary art like the series of photographs of music greats Dizzy Gillespie and BB King. One of the most valuable pieces of furniture on board the ship is a remarkable inlaid chest flanked by carved wooden 17th-century Baroque columns. Made in Germany in 1885, the chest is inlaid with ebony and precious stones. Enjoy an onboard IPod self-guided tour of the complete ms Noordam art collection. The ms Noordam exemplifies the classic style of ocean travel with contemporary amenities and modern enhancements.

My favourite ship of all! It was the whole trip that made this the best ship experience I have had.
Travelling out to Venice was great and the journey from the airport to the post very short. Joining the Noordam we were escorted to very grand staterooms, majority of them outside cabins.
The service and food were exceptional and the best I have experienced. The deserts were masterpieces and I couldn’t stop taking pictures of the dishes presented to me, they were so beautiful.
A highlight for me was "the culinary arts centre" which is a kitchen theatre style demonstration held in the lounge and features a celebrity chef who will cook and allow you to taste what they have cooked. This is a ship I would definately like to go on again and am in the process of looking at options to take my family away this year.
