Although Holland America has some old ships sailing in the
Mediterranean, there are still some great cruise options for
disabled cruisers.
• The key is to choose the correct itinerary on the correct ship.
• This article will tell you what you need to know!
3. www.sagetraveling.com
The Top 16 Accessible Holland America Cruises in the
Mediterranean include a variety of itineraries. The ms Nieuw
Amsterdam has three different 12 night itineraries that can be
combined into 24 night cruises.
4. www.sagetraveling.com
The ms Noordam sails four different 11 night itineraries that can
be combined into outstanding 22 night or 33 night vacations.
• In fact, the 33 night Holland America cruise made our list of Top 50
Accessible European vacations as the top one month accessible cruise!
• Two older ships, the ms Prinsendam and ms Ryndam are home to
accessible Holland America cruises to the Holy Land and Egypt.
5. www.sagetraveling.com
Wheelchair accessible Holland America cruises are possible on six
different ships:
1) ms Nieuw Amsterdam – This Signature Class ship is the newest (built in
2010) and most wheelchair accessible Holland America vessel in the
Mediterranean. It has 12 night Grand Mediterranean cruises between
Barcelona and Venice (it visits the same ports in either direction). It also
has a 12 night Eastern Mediterranean cruise. Both cruise itineraries can be
combined into a 24 night cruise. Slight variations in the itineraries cause
the percentage of accessible ports to range from 89% to 100%.
2) ms Noordam – This Vista Class ship was launched in 2006 and is more
handicapped accessible than all other ships listed on this page except the
ms Niew Amsterdam. It has four 11 night itineraries between Athens,
Barcelona, Rome, and Venice. They can be combined into 22 night and 33
night accessible Holland America cruises. Accessibility on these itineraries
ranges between 89% and 100%.
6. www.sagetraveling.com
Wheelchair accessible Holland America cruises are possible on six
different ships:
3) ms Ryndam – This S Class ship was built in 1994 and has a few Egypt
cruises.
4) ms Prinsendam – One of the oldest ships in the Mediterranean, this
small 835 passenger ship sails to Egypt and the Holy Land from Athens &
Venice.
5) A few itineraries are available on the ms Rotterdam and the ms
Eurodam.
Holland America does not list any
accessible shore excursions on its
website, and they haven’t responded to
our requests for information.
7. www.sagetraveling.com
Consequently, we are unable to confirm the accessibility of any of
the shore excursions they offer. That’s not a reason to avoid
Holland America though, since Sage Traveling offers 200+
wheelchair accessible shore excursions across 60+ Mediterranean
ports.

Lines, you may also be interested in
Princess Cruises and Celebrity
