Booking two cruises on the same ship is a great way to extend your holiday, and Holland America Line’s Collectors Voyages take the back-to-back booking to another level
You want to cruise for longer, but you don’t want to do the exact same cruise again? This is a common wish of cruisers who want a little more time with ocean sunsets and sensational ports. And it’s exactly what Holland America Line has in mind with its Collectors Voyages programme.
Instead of scheduling ships for identical cruises one after the other, Holland America Line – famous for its destination-led itineraries – mixes things up between voyages, so that pairing cruises together into a single booking means double the variety… not double-dipping.
The Seattle-based line calls these cruises ‘Collectors Voyages’ – two distinct cruises that pair perfectly together, and there’s nowhere better to enjoy a Collectors Voyage than in the Caribbean, where Holland America Line offers a range of unique itineraries in all corners of the world’s top cruise region.
With a six-month season in the Caribbean, from October to April, Holland America Line invites you to leave the winter blues behind and jet off to Florida for the warm rays of island sun, exotic cocktail in hand, and toes in the sand.
Onboard the line’s ‘perfectly-sized’ ships, you’ll find plenty of space to relax on deck or in comfortable lounges, which transform into dynamic music venues at night. And the entertainment line-up is regionally inspired, with the music of the ports working its way into World Stage shows and around the ship.
Now’s a great time to book a Caribbean cruise (…or two) with Holland America Line, because until the end of August, you can receive up to £600 per person airfare credit, one night in a pre-cruise hotel, plus transfers to and from the ship on Caribbean voyages sailing between now and spring next year.

So, how does a Collectors Voyage really work?
Well, it’s surprisingly simple. You might be thinking that booking a back-to-back voyage means double the amount of paperwork, but actually it couldn’t be easier.
Even though you’re doubling your holiday, Holland America Line condense all the booking process into one, so booking two cruises back-to-back is exactly the same as booking just one voyage.
Except… double the cruising. And that’s what we love about it. More time to explore new ports. More dinners to try out locally inspired dishes. More shows starring the very best local and international talent.
So, it’s more, more, more, with no extra hoops to jump through to match up the bookings. When others drop their heads and shuffle to the gangway, bags in tow, you’ll just keep on cruising with a new adventure ahead.
