We have travelled on many ships in the past, and the size of this cabin was excellent, plenty of space for your clothes and the bathrooms were also a good size. The dinning room was a bit of a mess, with open sitting as the head waiters couldn't arrange this. The food selection was good, with excellent portions. The buffett provided a large variety for all meal times. The shore excursions were fairly expensive, but excellent value for money. The entertainment onboard the ship was fabulous. The dancers provided excellent shows at night, and the cruise staff kept us entertained during the day with varying activities. I thought the childrens facilities onboard were of a high standard and the programme offered kept the teenage kids amused. Went to play half court tennis but with no balls around this was not possible. My experience on this ship was most enjoyable and would highly recommend this cruiseline.

Just back from a Volendam cruiseThis was our third cruise on HAL's Volendam. She is just as lovely a ship as always. But this time the food was the best ever. We ate in the dining room every night...unusual for us. But the food was so good and so was the service. The Volendam is...
