The MS Zaandam is a cruise ship owned and operated by Holland America Line, named for the city of Zaandam near Amsterdam. It was built by Italy’s Fincantieri yard in Venice and was delivered in 2000. She is part of the 'R-Class' and a sister ship to the MS Volendam, MS Rotterdam, and MS Amsterdam. It has a musical theme and is decorated with artifacts and memorabilia from different musical genres. Items such as a Baroque style Dutch pipe organ and guitars signed by the Rolling Stones can be seen.
The MS Zaandam was christened by the Olsen twins. Features of the ship include the Mondrian Lounge where passengers volunteer to perform in a play during the course of the cruise.
