I took a transatlantic cruise with Holland America Line to find out what it’s really like spending 9 sea days crossing the Atlantic. Would the sea be rough? Would we get bored? Was there enough to do onboard? And is a transatlantic cruise actually relaxing, or does it start to feel too long? In this video, I’ll share my honest experience onboard Nieuw Statendam, including the sea days, weather, food, entertainment, family experience and what surprised me most. If you’re thinking about booking a transatlantic cruise, this should help you decide whether it’s right for you.
