Holland America Line and The History Channel have teamed up to offer historically focused itineraries and immersive shore excursions, which are open for bookings via the “Start Your Journey” sale. The partnership is set to elevate the line’s cruises with custom itineraries and shore excursions, which will transport guests to ancient ruins and legendary landmarks, all while revealing the stories of the civilizations that shaped them.
Itineraries curated in partnership with The History Channel include the 14-day “Arctic Journey & Northern Lights,” the seven-day “Mediterranean Marvels of Pompeii” and the seven-day “Norwegian Fjords with Hardangerfjord.” Additional themed departures will include the eastern Mediterranean with a focus on ancient empires; northern Europe and its Viking heritage; Arctic encounters and the region’s history of polar exploration; and more. These cruises will be announced at a later date.
As a result of the line’s partnership with The History Channel, guests can enjoy dozens of shore excursions such as “Gold Panning & Underground Mine Exploration,” “Giza Pyramids, Sphinx & the Pyramid of Sakkara” and “Stavanger Old & New.” Guests on these tours will take a deep dive into the location’s historical significance, visiting important sites that played a role in the background of the locale.
Additional itineraries and shore excursions for 2025, 2026 and 2027 will continue to be released. More details about The History Channel partnership will be released in the coming months.
