We've also sailed on the Zaandam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Veendam, The Amsterdam, Ryndam and the Volemdam... not The Zuiderdam.
Since we moved to Florida we take advantage of a lot of special rates. Be sure and sign up on the HAL website for emails. Over the years we often booked economy cabins (inside) but now we enjoy the verandah cabins. We book the guarantee rates. It does not assign a cabin until about 2 weeks prior to sailing but you also usually get upgraded and the rates are really good.
I also suggest you do a little research on www.cruisecritic.com. They offer member reviews
There is a bus service available from Lady Lake to the port.
Any other questions?? |
