Description

This week, Sarah returns to share her family’s Holland America Line adventure through New England and Canada. Sailing aboard the Zuiderdam, they explored ports from Boston to Quebec City—including Portland, Halifax, Sydney, and the magical Prince Edward Island—home of Anne of Green Gables.


Sarah breaks down what makes Holland America different from Disney Cruise Line, from the smaller-ship feel and fantastic food variety to the multigenerational vibe and hidden gems onboard. She also shares her son Max’s take—spoiler: pickleball, sushi, and independence made it a hit!


Listen as Brian and Sam compare the HAL experience with DCL and talk about whether this classic cruise line could be a good fit for Disney cruisers looking to branch out.
