CULTURAL CRUISING

The rich traditions of the Far East unfold for guests on Holland America Line’s MS Westerdam, when the ship embarks on its 2019-20 season in Asia. From September 2019 to April 2020, the cruise ship will visit Cambodia, China, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and more, on cruises from 13 to 16 nights. “For many of our guests, a cruise to Asia is a oncein-a-lifetime experience, so we build our itineraries to include multiple countries, or in-depth explorations of an area, and create meaningful and deep encounters,” said Orlando Ashford, Holland America Line’s president. “Having an extensive season allows us to visit lesser-explored ports that offer an incredible glimpse into local cultures.” hollandamerica.com
