Defining the future of cruising, the ms Zuiderdam (pronounced ZI-der-dam) began her inaugural season in 2002 as the first of our new Vista Class cruise ships. Forward looking in both design and spirit ms Zuiderdam trumpeted the arrival of a new age in cruising. Ms Zuiderdam dazzles guests with more of everything they desire on a cruise ship, more staterooms with verandas for private dining, sunning and relaxing, more dining choices from fancy dress up dinners to casual pool side dining, more ways to be pampered in The Greenhouse spa and salon. This spectacular cruise ship delights guests with an unforgettable onboard experience.
