Holland America Line’s Canada & New England season will be even more scenic in 2021 with the addition of three cruises that explore the dramatic landscape of Greenland.
From April to October, guests can select from more than 13 unique Canada, New England and Greenland itineraries ranging from seven to 17 days, including a new roundtrip cruise from Boston, Massachusetts, that features Greenland, Newfoundland and New England.
“With spectacular scenery in any season, close-to-home access for many of our guests and a thriving culinary and cultural scene, Canada and New England remains one of our most requested destinations,” said Orlando Ashford, Holland America’s president.
“Adding Greenland to those itineraries makes them even more desirable because it’s so rarely visited on a cruise, and the natural beauty is a perfect complement to Canada and New England.”
Kicking off the season in April, Amsterdam, Zaandam and Rotterdam offer 50 cruises calling at 23 ports on itineraries departing from Boston, Fort Lauderdale Florida and Montréal.
In addition to Greenland, the cruises call at some of the region’s most iconic destinations, including Charlottetown on Prince Edward Island, Maine’s spectacular Acadia National Park, Cape Breton’s Bird Islands and Red Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador.
New for 2021
Three cruises will take in the stunning landscapes of Greenland
- Three new 17-day Greenland, Newfoundland & New England Discovery cruises aboard Rotterdam, top of page, in July and August sail roundtrip from Boston and explore remote destinations with breath-taking natural beauty. Ports include Paamiut, Qaqortoq and Nanortalik, Greenland; St. John’s, Red Bay, St. Anthony and Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador; Halifax and Sydney, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island; and Bar Harbor, Maine.
- Amsterdam and Zaandam will continue cruising between Montréal and Boston in both the summer and fall, which will add three additional Canada & New England Discovery cruises and one additional Atlantic Coast sailing.
- Rotterdam takes over the 10-day Newfoundland & New England Discovery itineraries that now sail all the way to Montréal and include a late-night departure or overnight at Québec City, Québec.
- All three ships will cruise the region in the fall so more guests can view the impressive display of jewel-toned foliage. Itineraries feature scenic cruising on the St Lawrence River and Saguenay Fjord.
