First Time on Holland America Line: Pros, Cons & Advice from a Millennial Aged Cruiser

If you're researching cruise lines looking for reviews or advice on which to book, the only thing you may vaguely know about Holland America is that it has a reputation for being a cruise line for old people - but is this fair, or even accurate? This was my 6th cruise overall and my very first on Holland America - so this video will be about what stood out, both the good and bad, during my first cruise experience with this different brand. My partner and I were a little nervous going into it - as a couple in our late 30s & early 40s, we weren’t sure if this was going to be the best cruise line for where we are in life - but after doing some research, gathering advice from others, and finding an awesome itinerary, we decided to give it a shot to see if it was a good fit for us as elder millennials. I’ll start off the review with what we liked and who we think Holland America is a good fit for, before finishing up with the dislikes and who might want to avoid this line.
