Holland America Line has announced its full 2027–2028 Legendary Voyages collection, featuring a series of immersive, long-duration cruises highlighted by the line’s first Caribbean-based Legendary Voyage, the 28-Day Pan Am 100 Years Legendary Voyage, and the 28-Day Solar Eclipse & Cosmic Port Explorer.
The season also marks the return of guest-favourite itineraries, including the 47-Day Ultimate Mediterranean & Atlantic Passage and a refreshed 28-Day Legendary Amazon Explorer, now sailing roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale in January 2028.
“Our guests are always looking for adventures that feel personal and unforgettable, whether that’s following the paths of ancient explorers, watching a solar eclipse at sea or spending unhurried time in some of the world’s most storied cities,” said Paul Grigsby, Holland America Line’s vice president of revenue planning and deployment.
“These new Legendary Voyages tap deeply into those desires, blending historic routes, rare access and extraordinary port time with the premium onboard experience our long‑time cruisers return for again and again.”
