Koningsdam | Wendy Wu Tours

Launched in 2016, Koningsdam was the first of Holland America's Pinnacle class - the line's largest and most contemporary ships - and she remains one of the standout vessels in the fleet.

Music runs through the heart of the ship: it shapes the design, the entertainment spaces and the art on the walls.

Koningsdam offers the full Holland America experience - exceptional dining, live entertainment every evening, spacious staterooms and a long list of places to spend your time - all delivered with the service the line is known for.

DINING

Koningsdam has eleven places to eat on board, from the two-deck main Dining Room - with open seating and daily-changing menus - to a range of specialty restaurants. The Pinnacle Grill serves Pacific Northwest seafood and steak; Rudi's Sel de Mer is an intimate French brasserie; Canaletto offers Italian at dinner; and Tamarind brings pan-Asian flavours to the table. The Grand Dutch Café covers lighter daytime eating, and the Culinary Arts Centre runs workshops and tastings throughout the voyage.

ENTERTAINMENT

Evenings revolve around the Music Walk - three venues side by side, each with its own character: B.B. King's Blues Club for rhythm and blues, the Rolling Stone Rock Room for classic rock, and Billboard Onboard for chart hits played live. For bigger productions, the two-deck World Stage uses a 270-degree LED screen for shows, comedy and the BBC Earth in Concert experience - wildlife footage from the world's most remote places, set to a live orchestra.

Bars & Lounges

Crow's Nest Bar

Perched at the top of the ship with sweeping forward-facing views, the Crow's Nest is one of the best spots on board for a drink at sea. Relaxed by day for puzzles and games, and a more social atmosphere as the evening gets going.

Ocean Bar

The main atrium bar, centrally located and a natural gathering point throughout the day. Live music most evenings and a small dancefloor make it one of the livelier spots on board after dinner.

Lido Bar

The poolside bar, serving drinks throughout the day alongside the Lido Pool. A casual spot for something cold between swims, with the retractable glass roof keeping things comfortable whatever the weather.

Sea View Bar

Located beside the adults-only Sea View Pool, this open-air bar is a quieter alternative for an afternoon drink with an uninterrupted view of the ocean.

Tamarind Bar

The bar attached to the Tamarind restaurant, serving cocktails and drinks with an Asian influence. A good pre-dinner option on evenings when you're dining at Tamarind.

Entertainment & Revitalisation

Authentic Memphis-style rhythm and blues performed live every night by a full band. One of the most popular spots on board after dark, with a dancefloor that tends to fill up early.

Casino

A full casino with slot machines, blackjack, roulette and poker tables. Open most evenings at sea, with instruction available for anyone new to the games.

Art Studio

Daily creative sessions led by onboard instructors, covering painting, drawing, crafting and more. Open to all abilities - a good option for sea days.
