Time for our 1st group cruise!!
Aug 17 - 24 2024 7 days Alaska cruise on the Holland America Koningsdam.
Join me on this amazing cruise and there will be 1 or 2 of added onboard perks from me as a thank you.

The ideas behind this is help solo cruisers avoid the single supplement by trying to match them up with someone and for us to have a blast as a group.
You can invite your friends and family as well to enjoy the savings as the listed price on Holland America is already 400-700 more.

Experience the Majestic Beauty of Alaska on the Koningsdam Cruise!

Embark on an extraordinary adventure unlike any other as we invite you to join us on the ultimate Alaskan voyage aboard the magnificent Koningsdam cruise ship. Prepare to be captivated by the awe-inspiring landscapes, magnificent glaciers, and abundant wildlife that define Alaska's untamed beauty. Our specially curated itinerary ensures you'll have the most unforgettable journey of a lifetime!

If complete bliss is the destination, Koningsdam is the journey. Fluid lines, light-filled spaces, and a blend of 21st-century elegance and nautical tradition dazzle at every turn. The ship abounds with innovative dining and entertainment options. Head to B.B. King’s Blues Club for Memphis R&B, take in visually stunning entertainment at World Stage, revisit classic hits at Billboard Onboard, and head to the Rolling Stone Lounge for the best in rock music. There’s so much to see and do on Koningsdam, the first of the cruise ships in our Pinnacle Class.

I have 16 cabins (5 different categories) on hold and as of today they are 400-700 lower than the price listed on Holland America.

Category
B 3174.02 PP
VE 2459.02 PP
D 2272.02 PP
F 2054.02 PP
L 1338.02 PP
This price includes Est'd Taxes, Fees & Port Expenses
Wi-Fi, drink packages and pre-paid gratuities can be added separately.
I picked August for peak weather and lots of people have been asking for a summer trip. I am trying to accommodate families and school teachers. More upcoming cruises and savings will be announced during the kids vacations.
Must have a deposit down my Mar 1 2024 but the sooner the better.
