Holland America Line is offering travelers a unique opportunity to experience a taste of its renowned Grand Voyages by booking segments of its 2025 Grand World Voyage or 2025 Grand Voyage: Pole to Pole. These abbreviated segments, available for as little as $169 per day, allow guests to enjoy the grandeur and luxury of a world-class voyage without committing to the entire four-month journey.
The 2025 Grand Voyage: Pole to Pole, sailing aboard the Volendam, offers seven segmentary itineraries that range from 20 to 100 days in duration, allowing guests to choose the experience that best fits their schedule and interests. On the 2025 Grand World Voyage aboard the Zuiderdam, cruisegoers can select from six available segments, ranging from 20 to 55 days long. These segments are designed to provide flexibility while still offering the enriching and immersive experiences that Holland America Line is known for.
"Our Grand Voyages are something our dedicated guests come back for every year while also attracting new guests who are eager to explore the world, but at over four months we recognize that not everyone has that time," said Paul Grigsby, vice president of deployment and itinerary planning for Holland America Line. "By booking one of our 2025 Grand Voyage segments, cruisers can get a taste of the special atmosphere and community aboard these sailings at an incredible value."
Grand Voyage segments sail between two key ports along each of the larger routes, so that the experience of hopping onboard the ship at various global locations is a smooth one.
On the Grand World Voyage, guests can join the ship and sail from Fort Lauderdale to Singapore or Sydney; Singapore to Athens; Cape Town to Fort Lauderdale; Sydney to Cape Town; or Athens to Fort Lauderdale.
The Grand Voyage: Pole to Pole segments go from Fort Lauderdale to Buenos Aires; Buenos Aires to Barcelona; Amsterdam to Fort Lauderdale; Fort Lauderdale to Amsterdam; and Amsterdam or Barcelona to Fort Lauderdale.
Guests on both the full and segmented Grand Voyages itineraries will have access to Holland America Line’s signature onboard experiences. This includes a comprehensive entertainment and enrichment program—which features 15 new production shows debuting in 2025—performances by comedians, headline entertainers and local musicians. Additionally, guests will enjoy region-specific cuisine prepared by guest chefs who will host live cooking demonstrations and special dining events.
