The MS Noordam is a 1,972-passenger Vista-class ship from Holland America Line (launched in 2006, refurbished in 2017) known for its mid-size, classic design, and extensive art collection. It features 11 passenger decks, premium amenities, and a focus on adult-oriented, refined cruising to Alaska.
Puget Sound cruises deliver incredible Pacific Northwest scenery. Keep your eyes peeled for humpback whales. On Puget Sound cruises en route to the Great Land, you’ll see everything from ice-capped mountains to remote islands dotted with gigantic Douglas firs to Mount Rainier.

Enter Glacier Gardens' unbelievable world of upside-down trees, with beautiful plants from around the world and a sanctuary of flowers. Here, you will find the original flower towers, inspired by a happy mistake, and take a guided tram ride up the mountainside through the Tongas National Forest to view Juneau from 600 feet asl. Heading back down through the forest, step into the pleasingly aromatic atmosphere of flowers in the main pavilion. Take some time to browse in the Glacier Gardens gift shop. Travel by coach to Overstreet (Whale) Park. A life-size breaching whale statue and fountain makes for an impressive centerpiece. Take in the panoramic views of Gastineau Channel and check out Native culture in the form of totems. These are dotted about the park and along the adjacent seawalk. Stroll the seawalk for terrific views of Juneau's city waterfront.
