Kids Cruise Free to Exciting Locales
Whether it's a family that loves to travel the world or one that's looking to stay closer to home, Holland America Line is including a variety of destinations with the kids cruise free offer. Families can book a sailing to Alaska, Canada/New England, Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico, Pacific Coast and through the famed Panama Canal.

One of the most sought-after family vacations is a cruise to Alaska, and no one explores The Last Frontier like Holland America Line. Perfect for a multigenerational vacation or a smaller family unit, every port has an adventure that's sure to excite all ages, like dog sledding on a glacier, panning for gold, a lumberjack show, whale watching, heading out on a leisure tour aboard a Bering Sea crabbing boat and more. On board, younger guests can earn their Junior Ranger Badge from the Glacier Bay National Park Ranger.

Canada/New England is a region rich in maritime history, stunning scenery and engaging experiences for the whole family. In Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, fans of Anne of Green Gables can visit the famed home that inspired the novels and learn all about author Lucy Maude Montgomery. Maritime buffs can head to the lighthouse at Peggy's Cove from Halifax and families who like getting out in nature can bike through stunning Acadia National Park.

Whether it's history, art, architecture, culture, cuisine or fun in the sun, Europe is a continent of riches for families that like a touch of everything. In Stockholm, Sweden, see the impressive Vasa battleship that sank in 1628 and was salvaged in 1961. History comes to life in Athens, Greece, where families can explore the Parthenon, and a call at Alexandria, Egypt, opens the opportunity to head to Cairo and see the Pyramids of Giza, Sphinx and cruise the Nile River. Museums abound in Europe, from Viking-centric exhibits to art galleries to museums that house ancient relics.
