Holland America Line Celebrates 80 Years in Alaska

As Holland America Line prepares to celebrate 80 years of exploring Alaska in 2027, the cruise line is unveiling Alaska Heritage Tours, a collection of iconic experiences that connect today's guests with the earliest days of Holland America in the Great Land. Select tours trace their roots back 80 years, giving guests the opportunity to experience many of the same places and traditions travelers did generations ago. While the experiences have been thoughtfully modernized over the decades to reflect evolving guest interests and expectations, they remain true to their heritage, offering an authentic connection to Alaska's history, culture and communities.

Available on select cruises and Cruisetours, Alaska Heritage Tours highlights some of the experiences that have become enduring favorites among Holland America Line guests. From the historic White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad, which traces a route first forged during the Klondike Gold Rush, to the Riverboat Discovery, where travelers have long explored Alaska's interior by river, the collection showcases experiences that remain as relevant and inspiring today as they were when Holland America Line first began exploring Alaska nearly 80 years ago.
